Yeah, it should be available on the Fire TV/Fire Stick and Roku etc after a few races.stubeck wrote:There will be one in the future.

Streaming after works fine - nice yoke... live is live and not black screen or buffering...stubeck wrote:This is all temporary. There were obviously issues but its not always going to be this way. It was in HD, and streaming it after it completed worked pretty much fine.scaleautofactory wrote:Dont waste your money for live coverage on f1 tv.
Stream is broken often: black screen or buffering or your a minutes back of live coverage...
No HD!
Switching between the driver cameras does need minutes...
And this is the experience of 2 free practices today - guess qualify and race will have the same result.
I have now glue why F1 does not use a fully working streaming provider.
Also, in germany you can watch the television progra, live and in hd bia internet without problems....
If you're unwilling to deal with some hiccups, wait until after this weekend to sign up.
They are not able to handle such a amount of users with the current architecture provided by tata. We have also much trouble in our company with our offices in india driven by tata communications....

Re: F1 TV is a go!
I got the $25/yr package. Some things I noticed while watching:
Not easy to find full races in 2018 archive, but they are there. Older seasons are there too!!! How about that?
The sound options suck. Either commentary or engine noise, not both. WTF?!
Can't tell if this is a true HD feed or not. Has anyone checked?
I'm going to watch Round 1 race tonight.

Re: F1 TV is a go!
Also be aware that once you sign up, F1 has it so it auto charges at the end of your subscription.
You have to notify them to cancel - we'll see how that works...
