[Omiee]

It should have been a Senna/Prost redux.

 

[SunhiLegend]

Holy shit, this is going to be intense

man i remember alonso holding up hamilton in the pits lol.

 

[Dilly]

Yeah, and even though McLaren imploded in 2008, they have lots of respect for each other now.

It's quite like Senna/Prost, too bad it didn't last longer.

-edit-

No gridwalk?

 

[Gareth Bale]

I don't think they're doing a gridwalk

 

[Diablohead]

sky lol

 

[TylerD]

I'm having to watch the Speed broadcast since I am at my parents house. Horner just said That Webbers KERS didn't work on his qualifying lap because he didn't push the button.

 

[Wes]

HELLO BERINE YOU ****

 

[Omiee]

lol webber is awesome.
'' he was talking about sky'' haha

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Haha Webber.

 

[Dilly]

Haha

He was talking about sky.
-The sky?

Webbah!

 

[f0rk]

I don't think they're doing a gridwalk

Brundle said the commentary box is too far from the grid.

 

[Mobius 1]

The sky. Oh man.

 

[Stop It]

Well, that radar looks like we're going to be soggy but not deluged today.

Webber annoyed at the drier side of the track not being his, heh.

Anyway, as usual, come join us for the F1 chat on Steam, a wet race should make for some interesting discussion: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/F1GAF

 

[Shaneus]

What did Webber do?

 

[Mecha_Infantry]

Man Lee McKenzie...All over my face....

 

[Gareth Bale]

Paul and Lee would make a good couple

 

[Zeppu]

Yo, regarding the BBC HD stream mentioned here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/9542651.stm

How do you get access to it? The links on the page keep pointing to each other and the BBC iPlayer has no 'Watch in HD' option. Halp?

 

[Omiee]

What did Webber do?

bbc asked him what he was talking about with bernie.
he responded with he was talking about sky.

 

[Mobius 1]

There is no HD option for iPlayer. Even the high option is looking blocky today, though.

 

[Dilly]

Man Lee McKenzie...All over my face....

Yes

 

[f0rk]

I'd undercut McKenzie.

 

[Gareth Bale]

I'd undercut McKenzie.

I'd show her how good I am in the wet

 

[ANDY_098]

Good news for MRL. Should help cars on the dirty side of the grid.

 

[Shaneus]

I'm having an early one tonight folks, so no commentary from me during the race Fingers crossed for Webber pulling off something miraculous! Otherwise, a Vettel DNF will suffice.

 

[Dilly]

Haha, F1 GAF is creepy today.

 

[SunhiLegend]

There is no HD option for iPlayer. Even the high option is looking blocky today, though.

Its not on the iplayer its a seperate link. In the UK it goes past quality 4 and up to HD.

[TylerD]

I would have mcKenzie just talk to me while I masturbate furiously.

Spoiler

At first

 

[Gareth Bale]

Waiting for the inevitable, "Fernando is faster than you" whilst they are stationary on the grid.

There are some details about the various bitrates it'll try to use in this comment on the initial blog:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinter..._prix.html?postId=109824799#comment_109824799

The overlays in the top left corner let you know which bitrate you are currently watching.

1 = 512kbps 512x288
2 = 800kbps 640x360
3 = 1,400kbps 640x360
4 = 2,100kbps 1024x576
HD = 3,200kbps 1280x720

Profile 4 & HD are only available when you go full-screen
Hope this helps.

[RomanticHeroX]

Why are the McLaren suits flowery this weekend?

 

[SunhiLegend]

Awesome Pole Lap

 

[Ark]

I'd show her how good I am in the wet

Post of the week.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Why is he most worried about Alonso? Does he expect McLaren to walk this?

 

[brotkasten]

Horner is just ignoring that Alonso is behind Massa on the grid. :lol

 

[TylerD]

oke woow!! lol wtf

Too far?

Er... Let's go team, win that GP!

 

[Omiee]

Man this will be awesome.

rain
mclaren fast as fuck.

alonso has to make a lot of overtakes and so will webber.
this is going to be a nice race

 

[Gareth Bale]

This part right now is where Sky will probably cut to an ad break

 

[Dilly]

Hamilton's life is perfect.

 

[Stop It]

Why is he most worried about Alonso? Does he expect McLaren to walk this?

Alonso is on the better side of the track, and will attack into turn 1. This + Button and Hamilton behind Vettel = massive lulz coming into turn 1.

Just tried the HD stream, not bad but Freeview HD is still better.

This part right now is where Sky will probably cut to an ad break

Formula 1, brought to you by McDonalds, etc etc, *cut to advert*

 

[Omiee]

Do they at least have a splitscreen thing, where you can still watch the race?
RTL here in holland does that, so you dont miss anything during the ad break.

 

[Ark]

The track looks like a crane on a treadmill.

 

[Omiee]

Just read a preview for f1 2011, will be a nice game, with more pressure on tyres etc.

 

[Diablohead]

LIVE SWIMMING

only if it heavy rains

 

[Omiee]

Will be interesting to see who will pit first, if it stops raining and the track dries up.

 

[PdotMichael]

I have the feeling, we will see the safety car
