Default Chinese GP Rebroadcast?

Was out and about last weekend and missed the race on TV.

I thought I would find a rerun to watch but can't find it on the "speedchannel" schedule.

Anybody know about a rerun?

They generally don't re-run the broadcast. However, they do run a post race analysis show (usually around one week after the race).

I used to enjoy it when Speedvision replayed the races on Monday evening, unfortunately Speed doesn't do this. The "F1 Debrief" show will give you all of the race highlights though.

+1 the whole network was run a little better, in an 'enthusiast' sort of way, back then

They replayed the race at 4:30 that day, but I can't find it on there schedule. Sorry.

And I agree, the network was a whole lot better a few years ago, before it got it went nascar.

I'll just have to be satisfied watching "Pinks" and that teenybopper bimbo who does the promos.

I think Speeds' target market is Bubba and 12-15 year old boys who can't wait to get their first wheels.

FI and other Road racing is just filler.

You have to get a DVR. That will solve all your race watching problems

Speed has dropped many types of racing and repeats the cheap to produce crap like Pinks over and over
Second the DVR. Only way to go. Once you get one you will never, ever, give it up.

I set my DVR to record the race and it didn't record, I set it to record the rebroadcast at 4:30 and it didn't record. It also only recorded part of the second half of the petit lemans. When I checked the history, it said channel not available. Weird. Seems to work fine now.

Best to use Season Pass or Series with the DVRs.

The Petit was only broadcast in segments. They may have changed times or something which is why it did not record.

Looks like you're having prolems only Larry David would have (his tivo in "curb" automatically recorded gay ****)...

I was having problems with automatically recording on my TIVO as well.
So I cancelled my subsription and manually set the time and channel and it works fine now. Just remember to start it a couple of minutes before and let it run longer as well as SPEED tends to be a little relaxed about adhearing to the right time.

I too have been having troubles with season passes. I have a TEVO and a FIOS based DVR. The FIOS info and DVR programing sucks. I have to check and add many races that are season pass races. It is starting to be a little bit of a problem with TEVO too. Takes a couple of min once a week to keep up on it. About the time of a single break during a 2.5 hour F1 race.
