Default "F1 TV" live streaming service

Yes, I would pay $8-12/month for this! It's basically all of the races/quali etc with a choice of language and access to all in cockpit cameras.
My only concern with anything streaming is that the data comes through cleanly and not all chopped up!

Since F1 is the sole reason I keep my cable TV, this could save me a couple hundred a month alone.

This sounds cool BUT the one issue is the repeated use of the word "live". Does this mean you have to wake up in the middle of the night to use this service when F1 is anywhere except the Americas?

Hopefully they have a replay option. Otherwise the ability to watch from the cockpit of any driver sounds absolutely awesome. Either way they will get my money for this.

Good point! Hopefully it's available other than live.

Subscribers will be able to watch live races of the main support series, the FIA Formula 2 Championship, GP3 Series and Porsche Supercup, among others.

F1 isn't the only reason I keep my cable, but certainly one of them. The DVR is especially important to me and the ability to FF through commercials

Yesssssss. I alluded to wanting exactly this in another thread. I wonder if it will be the sky commentators.
Can I cancel it from Dec-March?

Been in that boat with you for many years now. Finally cut the cord as of the new year. Not looking back.

This is great, finally following WSBK and MotoGP's lead! Hope they have a "no spoiler" site as well.

I'll pay, almost anything to not watch parts of the race in a tiny split screen during commercials.
