If I did that we'd need another board

Do you think that the coverage is good enough? In 2007 we got a grand total of 1 Grand Prix live. One! Even then it wasn't Australia, and they were the damn host broadcaster. I have written to the network on every occasion now and haven't even got so much as a single reply.

You are right in that the coverage is not as good as in other countries, and is certainly not as good as I would like. But are we really in a position to demand better coverage? I mean, to me, it seems like the alternative is F1 being broadcast live on pay tv. And to me, this is not desireable. So I just deal with it. And for me, being the nocturnal beast I am. Staying up late for the F1 is not that big a deal. We get most races between 10:30pm and 12 so its okay for me. having said that, I fell asleep last night during the telecast. Can't blame ten for that though.
