    Formula one

    I am not a great lover of this sport anymore , to much money and to much the same same.
    But i have read that Lewis "dont speak to me if i dont win the race" Hamilton has a new partner, Valtteri Bottas, i have always like this driver, he is quite but has proved himself with Williams.
    I may start watching it again, but then again i may not.

    German Grand Prix today, Lewis Hamilton's car broke down yesterday whilst qualifying so he starts todays race at 14th, hope he pulls something out of the bag to at least get a podium position. Good luck Lewis

    Fantastic.

    I've had to miss the last few races, with being out here in the jungle.

    I did buy a big TV though, and brought my Xbox with wheel and pedals for my car racing.

    If your TV and internet provider is Sky Cable you can watch Formula 1. I will keep you updated in future Graham. By the way this last race was the most difficult but best that Lewis has experienced, he was very emotional just after the race.

    Thanks Michael.

    Though we've no chance of having any kind of cable TV out here in the wilds of Pangasinan.

    I actually have an antenna atop a 30 foot bamboo pole, which leads down to a wi-fi modem (mobile phone SIM)... and our internet feeds in from that, to all of our devices, via wifi.

    I can watch Youtube via my Xbox, on the big TV though, as the Xbox is also wi-fi enabled.

    I may give that a try.

    My present entertainment is dependent upon a phone signal for internet... + analogue terrestrial TV though.

    Pole position for Lewis today at Hungary, pouring with rain Vettel at 4th, should be a good race tomorrow as it's a rather difficult track to overtake

    Yes, and he does seem to have held on to being a nice guy, despite all the enormous pressures there must be upon him from (some maybe dubious) peers, and just through being rich and famous.

    Very true Graham. How's your little family?

    We're all fine thanks Michael.

    It's the little perisher's 3rd birthday come August 11th, so there will be a cake and other grub to devour.

    He's already attending nursery school though, he's so advanced and bright !

    Oh, thanks for the reminder Michael.

    Spa has to be one of my favourite circuits too.

    Good enough, I think.

    Oh yes, Monza, another great high speed track.

    I am missing my motor sport.

    Did you check out Sky Cable Graham? The channel to watch is 'Star Sport'. There may be other providers that run Star Sport or it may be possible to find it on internet. Just checked internet and found FOX SPORT Asia. Looks like they broadcast F1 also. Good luck!

    Cheers mate.

    Sadly we are reliant on a phone signal only, for internet, being in the middle of nowhere, as we are, so not much chance of watching other TV channels.

    Kimi on pole followed by Seb then Lewis, todays race will be hard for Lewis now that Ferrari upgrades have produced more speed, hope he can pull something out of the bag
