F1 commentary on the internet

Post

Hey,
Does anyone know where I can get commentary for the GPs on the internet? Can be in English or German...I would usually use the BBC but I'm not allowed to here in Germany!
Cheers

No offense meant, just kidding (although I still don't get why are you not allowed to listen BBC).

Man the Star sports commentry sucks....
The guy named Steve slater really is Alonso and Hamilton fan, and He even goes to say that, Alonso was saving his engine in the last race ( and got himself overtaken ) so that he can use that engine for full use this weekend :roll:
Those who saw the quly in star sports would remeber that! :lol:

It's all to do with the fact that the BBC is finaced by people in Britain through buying a TV licence, so I would be cheating the system if I could get it here I suppose. Doesn't seem to matter too much as the German coverage is much better than ITV.

He does sometimes say stuff that is what a wild fan may say and even talks such immaturish things sometimes but his voice modulation and dramatisation throughout the race keeps it alive unlike ITV commentary for eg all that martin brundle said when heidfeld overtook alonso in bahrain was, "oh thats a nice move, nice driving" !!

i second that!! Slater is getting very biased about Mclaren and the 2 drivers mentioned by you...hes freakin crazy abt Lewis and Alonso, so even when Nick o.t. him, he was making excuses..Yesterdays commentary was no different with him banging about Mclaren...again...
about ITV, you can download it from torrentspy.com...even SPEEDTV..their coverage is much much better then Star Sports..less ads, more action, better commentary.

ITV downloads also include raceday and occupy about 1.4gb..SPEEDTV download includes only the race..700mb....you can get pre and post race separately, which are around 150mb each

If you have the necessary disk space, I really would recommend ITV over SPEED TV. ITV has a nice insight always and what they say is generally interesting unlike other channels where they keep talking rubbish.

BTW, you do get 700mb downloads of ITV's coverage which is just the race, but it is always nice to have the whole show !! (I have a 500GB external for my multimedia so I dont worry about the space !!) :lol: :lol: :lol:

David Hobbs and Steve Matchett on SPEEDTV are awesome commentators, produce more excitement than 100 Steve Slaters
