Of course you are infringing the copyright.
Youa re also if you watch F1 on BBC live withut a licence. Streams are all illegal, but for those of us who refuse to pay for sport, they are an option until they are eventually got rid of. I have no problem with it, the quality is poor, they often go wrong so relaly they are just a basic option. |

As Ive mentioned before, probably in this thread, just get Sky Go on your computer for £20 month, (always gives you all Film Channels plus loads more), plug the cable into your TV, bingo, live on screen.
And no, it doesnt buffer. For that, I get 24 hour F1. Lovely jubbley. |

So, to watch all the races live would cost you £315 minimum, assuming the races are held over a 9 month period. See Sky website page; click on button about half way down the page where it says "Find out how to get Sky Go without Sky TV in your home" (immediately above Frequently Asked Questions) : http://www.sky.com/shop/tv/sky-go |

£40.00 per month sounds like a rather good deal ...

If you can find a pub anywhere in Britain that will let you watch F1! let the world know, they would usually rather have anything else on than motor racing

There are plenty of pubs around here that have f1 on during the live broadcasts including many that have several screens showing different sports that way they encourage more people in to buy drinks

I do not spend a huge amount oif time in pubs to be honest, but I guess during hte race season there is oftne no football on, and that is usually whats on.
But I have never, ever seen F1 on in a pub anywhere in Britain. |

I take phone, broadband and TV so the package cost in total is quite a lot. The increase to get the sports package and doubled broadband speed (and another year in contract, which was the only downside) was the princely sum of £5 a month.
Considering the list cost of the sports bundle and the specific broadband package was approaching £45-50 at the time (earlyish 2012) I thought that was a decent deal. |

I don't know whether this is a sign of things to come, or not come as the case may be, but it would appear that the BBC have dropped the live feed web-page covering the testing at Barcelona. Hopefully it is just a glitch, but unfortunately I have a feeling in my waters that this may be a cost cutting exercise.

to be honest, the only time i use the bbc live feed is for the odd race and qualifying sessions. covering test sessions i think is best left to the specialist press.

Bernie and CVC are so dysfunctional as a business that they are simply milking the money out drip by drip for their own benefit and reinvesting nothing. There is no marketing dept., no F1 PR spokesman, nothing and nobody to put the case for covering F1. I bet the BBC can't wait to drop it altogether once their commitment is fulfilled. |

did you know sky send a team to every race for both the sky sports f1 channel AND sky sports news?
no wonder the sports package costs so much if that's their attitude. |
