Channel 10 GP Coverage

Rick · 5 May 2005, 09:35 (Ref:1293509)

I know this is more F1, but this forum is probably more geographically relevant!
According to the TV guides CH 10 are putting two NCIS episodes before putting the Spanish GP on at 11.30!! Half an hour of Bill and Neil replaying the afternoons RPM and we'll be lucky if the race starts before midnight.
"Home of Motorsport" - you are kidding. It's getting as bad as 9 use to be.

TSR · 5 May 2005, 09:38 (Ref:1293512)

Typical of the seroius motorsport channel-- they like AVESCO could not give a flying F### about us the paying public.

Rick · 5 May 2005, 09:46 (Ref:1293517)

... and I see Champcars have copped the "Big Brother Up Late" or whatever its called again and will now start about 1.30 a.m. on Monday nights!

TSR · 5 May 2005, 10:11 (Ref:1293525)

Well that is your LOGIE WINNING HOME OF MOTORSPORT-- SERIOUSLY.

I dunno about the paying public thing. I for one haven't made any donations to Ch10 lately...

If we ***** and whine enough, maybe the rights will go to Foxtel. Then absolutely everyone would be happy

That's the biggest load of BS I have ever heard. No-one will be happy if Foxtel gets the rights as the races will not be shown untill late night.

How could everyone be happy when not everyone has foxtel

vatuloa · 6 May 2005, 04:22 (Ref:1294122)

To rub it in the second NCIS is a repeat

peckstar · 6 May 2005, 04:29 (Ref:1294124)

How do you figure that? Foxtel shows MotoGP and World Superbikes live. Why wouldn't it show the F1 GPs live, if it had the rights? It'd be nice though, if Foxtel did have the rights to simulcast the V8s and the F1 races. It'd give me more flexibility as to when I can tape either show.

In the future we might see shows (F1) live on HD digital if the FTA channels are allowed to multi channel..........I believe this is in front of the fed Gov atm.........with Ch 7 leading the charge on this I am lead to believe.

edit.....if Foxtel were to get F1 it would be regarded as a flagship program (designed to sign up viewers) and would be shown live.

I also do that

Crash Test · 6 May 2005, 07:17 (Ref:1294162)

winkie people

winkie

I'd be happy with what we've got. If 10 decide to ditch everything and broadcast Big Brother and american soaps all day every day, we'd probably be a helluva lot worse off..

johnh875 · 6 May 2005, 10:57 (Ref:1294281)

I'd have a cheaper electricity bill!

dsg · 6 May 2005, 12:19 (Ref:1294333)

I noticed on the yahoo tv guide Channel 10 are showing race one on Saturday night, (11.30pm in Perth) but it is not advertised on v8supercar.com.

Er, when did I say that, particularly in relation to F1 telecasts?

In any case, I was talking about simulcast, not exclusive broadcast rights. Mainly because it'd make it a bit easier for me to organise taping of whatever race was on. I work shiftwork and given that I work 2 weekends out of 3, I often miss watching the races (F1, MotoGP and World Superbikes) live. Same for the V8s.

The showponies actually go into the house in about an hour and a halfs time NOT tomorrow night as they will show on the TV. Its all pre recorded on the first weekend of it. Monday nights is actually from Sunday night.
How do I know - I work at Dreamworld where it is based and all the staff just wish it would go away. All the sponsors, radio contest winners of tickets ,etc etc etc that are allowed to go to the first night were arriving when I left 20 mins ago.
These delays are just c..p! Like last weekends Moto GP. No need for it.

mabs_nsx · 3 Jun 2005, 06:49 (Ref:1318681)

What other Chanels has Formula 1 been shown on before channel 10?
Who has done the best job?
Has CCWS ever been on other Channels?

racer69 · 3 Jun 2005, 08:55 (Ref:1318764)

Channel 9 started showing Formula 1 as of the 1981 German Grand Prix at Hockenheim (a beauty of a race too!), and were the only Australian channel to cover it until the end of 2002.

Prior to that, i have seen reference (in an old RCN) to the ABC showing races on delay during the latter half of 1980, starting with the 1980 British GP from Brands Hatch.

Former member Ray Bell also made mention in the past of Channel 7 showing the 1976 championship decider from Mt Fuji in Japan.

As for ChampCars, Channel 9 only showed the Indy500 prior to 1991, when they covered the first Gold Coast IndyCar race, and from there showed all rounds of the CART World Series until the end of 1995, when Channel 10 got the rights.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has seen that 'Big Brother' continues to run overtime on a Sunday for the sixth consecutive year. I'm starting to set my alarm half an hour later for the F1, after two crap shows of NCIS, which are shown in their entirety.
