    No,Sommet came to the rescue after Sky NZ wanted to get Dorna to block all internet subscribers access as part of the deal...negotiations broke down.

    Sky Euro (Spain,Italy and UK) tried the same shit on.

    Yep typical Sky service...live as long as the race is at midnight, however for the handful of GP's close to our timezone, aus/japan/malaysia you'll no doubt find the coverage delayed so as to accommodate other sports. Video pass is the only way to go.
