Finally... practice in widescreen. TSN never carried practice, and it's always pissed me off.

Hello. I'm confused. I just checked the Speed programming schedule for the week. Are you factoring the time-shift for the daylight-savings time that went into effect on Sunday morning (the 9th)? It looks like the broadcast should be (EDT):
Thursday the 13th: Midnight Practice
Friday the 14th: Midnight Qualifying
Sunday the 16th: 1am Race coverage
I suppose midnight is technically the following day, so maybe it's Friday midnight, Saturday midnight, Sunday 1am for the three day event.

it must be magic...
there is 15 hours difference betwwen Melbourne and Eastern US. which means race starts SUN 15.30 at Oz, SUN 12.30am in NY, SAT 11.30pm in Chicago. Am I correct?

This is no joke. In my daughters 8th grade science class, a girl said she wanted to fly to the sun. When the teacher said, "Well wouldn't you burn up?", the girl said "I'm going to go at night".

Speed's new website is totally screwed up, including the program schedule so I wouldn't really trust it. They will carry it live. My Cable Guide lists the same times as 330R posted.
Also, Inside Grand Prix is listed as on at 11:30p Sat., just before race coverage.

They said the MOTO GP would be at 6 or 7 and showed the 250cc arce instead and then showed the MOTO race at 10 without telling anybody...I missed the start which was apparently quite good with a bunch of fairing bashing...best racing in the world...bar none. Passing like crazy.

sounds like a good plan
Mine is similar: to turn my TV on, put headphones on my ears, turn the volume up, sit down with 12-pack of my favorite beer AND NOT TO BE BOTHERED BY ANYONE!

Formula 1 coverage on SPEED from the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park in Melbourne, Australia:

11:00 p.m. EST Australian Grand Prix Practice (L)
Friday, Mar. 14, 2008
11:00 p.m. EST
Australian Grand Prix Qualifying (L)
Saturday, Mar. 15, 2008

Once you have accepted the concept of "time zones" this shouldnt prove to be too difficult.

This is a major reason why we proof read.

Finally somebody with a sense of humour about themselves on this board...
I always find this website useful for TV times in North America: Race Fan TV
For those who may worry about its accuracy, I can say from experience that it's quite regularly updated.

Speed listed the program as 1 hour long, I set the DVR and it duly stopped at the end of the hour when only 3/4 of the race had elapsed. Luckily I got home on time and noticed that Speed had extended the broadcast a bit, however, they never showed the finish, instead, they switched to PINKS, an inane and repetitive program that probaby gets taped months in advance, pure filler.

Remember, it's EDT not EST now that the Energy Act moved daylight savings to the second weekend in March from the first weekend in April.

Thanks for that, I just got an email from my father, he's in Mexico, and wanted to know what time the race starts for him, and it was making my headache
Next silly question, which mexican cable channels show f1 ?

Assuming your hotel has Comcast:
Basic cable Channel 71
Cable Ready 57
Digital 71
As comcast owns Philly, there's a good chance your hotel has it.

I might be wrong on this but Im sure I read in F1 Racing Magazine months ago that F1 would be broadcast in HD this year, If not an upscaled image although not perfect will still be quite nice.Originally posted by tkulla
The F1 worldwide feed is not in HD as far as I know, so if you are lucky enough to get Speed TV in HD it will really just be an upsampled version of the SD feed.

It is indeed a handy site, and over the past few years I have yet to see them get it wrong.

There was a commercial on Speed no less than 2 minutes ago for the F1 coverage this weekend. It stated Friday Practice 2 would air at 11pm EDT.
That website of theirs is seriously messed up.

For those of us that will only see in SD on regular Speed pls tell us how did the practice look in detail. I know you've seen the HD sports like NASCAR, how did it compare????
Pls let us know this whole weekend how it looks...
thanks!
