Abu Dhabi sports show it mate. I didn't get home in time to watchit from the start, so was channel hopping awaitnig the replay. At the exact second I changed channels, I saw the Red Bull crash! Gutted. Still, I was trying to tell myself that I'd got it wrong and it was the Torro team!

A great race though.

I was trying to watch the replay but the sound was about 5 seconds behind the picture and it made it unbearable! You could watch via the net and a UK VPN but you'll need a decent speed internet connection.

I can't justify paying the extortionate broadband prices in the UAE so am stuck with 512k and Arabic commentary!

I haven't seen a single race since Bahrain.

That was just before I moved to Dubai and, because I work on Saturdays and Sundays, I haven't had chance to see the other races. That, and the fact that I haven't bothered getting a telly yet!

I saw every single race last season, including a trip to Spa for the Belgian Grand Prix. I have bought a couple of tickets for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix but by then I will probably have no idea who is who or what is what.

Has this season been any good so far? I've heard it's gone a bit dull again, generally speaking.

I miss watching the race after a decent pub Sunday roast!!

It's been made more exciting by the evolve.ae F1 predictions league, guess the positions....win...kudos?!

Yorky is beating me by 1 point. I think he has been fixing races....

Surprisingly that was the last race i saw as well!! Went to practice then watched the race in the pub. Follow live updates on race day on ESPN F1 site but its not the same, from what I've heard its had some good races so far with Bahrain being one of the most boring!! Typical!
