We should know more when the service starts.Fulcrum wrote: ↑Fri May 04, 2018 11:53 amIs there any way at all to engage with this platform if you are domiciled in a country without access rights?
As I understand it, your credit card has to be issued and/or associated with a country that has access rights. If you could produce a card with said details, I assume a VPN would work? Or are their additional protections in place?
They recently updated their subscription terms in regards to VPN. It says they may end the contract for the Services at any time without refunding or compensating you [...] if you use stuff like VPN.r101 wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 1:18 pmWe should know more when the service starts.Fulcrum wrote: ↑Fri May 04, 2018 11:53 amIs there any way at all to engage with this platform if you are domiciled in a country without access rights?

There is more than one way to do the VPN, and also more than one way to protect your product. By this I mean that service could be protected from popular VPN providers, or could just be 'provisionally' protected and you could access it via anything other than plain internet.
That means that they are legally washing their hands of it. Does not mean they will be active or passive in searching for VPNers. On the other hand, if you are doing something illegal, you should be aware that you can stay without your subscription (and that month-per-month payment is a better option).MtthsMlw wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 1:30 pmThey recently updated their subscription terms in regards to VPN.

Streams from first races are running fine. Onboard streams are there too. FX sound option is great. If you choose any language stream, the background sound is way too low imho, but i will not use that option .MtthsMlw wrote: ↑Wed May 09, 2018 9:47 pmhttps://f1tv.formula1.com/en/
It's live now but from what I heard it's quite buggy and not well optimised yet (as expected).
Onboard streams are a joke in terms of playback smoothness. They lag and chop back and forwards all the time, which is strange because so far this kind of issues have not been seen. What's even more perplexing is the same onboard footage in the race replays is butter smooth.gandharva wrote: ↑Thu May 10, 2018 10:31 amStreams from first races are running fine.
