    Default Formula 1

    does anyone know how I can listen
    to the Formula 1 commentary from the BBC 5 Live as it recognises I am not in the UK and blocks the broadcast ?
    cheers

    Otherwise, no. It's possible to fool the iPlayer, but highly tricky.

    Default Formula 1

    We are in the same position but we have found a website that streams the race live..... broadcast is only available minutes before the live race.

    The quality is a bit naff but depending on your broadband connection you get a constant stream with good audio and narration from the Martin Brundle and co.

    The great thing is NO ADVERTS!!!!! enjoy

    The live timing at http://www.formula1.com/services/live_timing/ is quite cool to follow whilst the race is on too.

    Not now, it's easy (for 5 quid a month / 50 quid a year): www.adtelly.tv

    Works really well.

    Hmm. Talisker, have you tried this service? It's just that there's no way to demo the thing for quality, and you can't access the forum until you've subscribed (to see what problems people are getting). Also, the forum seems awfully light on posts, suggesting there aren't many users. Also, if you click on the main page link to the FAQ, you get a 'no such page' error, which isn't a great start.

    Just wondering if you've actually seen it working yourself.
