There’s a few questions on getting F1TV derailing the race page so I thought I’d ask here.
As I understand it we can’t get it here legally due to Sky having the contract.
But could you sign up if you were on holiday in the states and then would it work when you got back?

As I understand it, it's geo-blocked so you won't be able to watch from a UK IP address.

If only there was a way to make it look like you're still on "holiday" wink

Software developers are getting cleverer though. I couldn't get iPlayer to work in France a few weeks ago despite using a VPN. I'd be interested to know if others have had more success.

Yes I know there are ways round it but if I was a US citizen I'd want it to work on holiday.
I thought if I subscribed while out there (with a US card) it would work here when I come home.

I bought F1TV in Portugal but it would only show archive stuff when I was in the UK.
