    Go to the pub and watch it there. You can spend the money Sky wants for the sports channels, on beer instead.

    Life would be so much easier if you addressed questions with a simple answer.

    Sky can get a big dog up it.

    If it makes anyone feel better, I'll be watching it on the big screen at home on Sky, followed by the Japanese Grand Prix.


    Re Sky though, the only reason I have it, is to watch the F1 and motorcycling.
    Now they dont even have the rights for the World superbike championship. You're fucked if you do, and youre fucked if you dont.

    Bathhurst is not the same nowadays, loved it in the 70,s and 80,s but sorta lost interest in it these days.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Agreed, it's a yawn fest. If ever I felt compelled to glance at it, I would watch the first 10 laps or so and the last 20... it can get interesting when the weather turns to shit but other than that? yeah na even the hourly recaps can be dreary.

    In saying that, it has be known of me to fall asleep watching a MotoGP race.

    Besides with Falcon's death warrant signed and Commodores' production in their dying throes Bathurst's years must also be numbered.

    Bathurst is as much fun as watching Harley Sportsters run against Harley Sportsters on flat round track,,,,who gives a shit.

    Might watch if Jaguar comes back.
