From launch, Sky Sports F1 TM HD will give viewers:

EVERY RACE LIVE: From March to November, every moment of each race will be live in HD, without the interruption of adverts.

LIVE PRACTICE and QUALIFYING: Every practice and qualifying session for each Grand Prix will be shown live on one channel, Sky Sports F1 TM HD

THE FULL SEASON IN-DEPTH: Over nine full months, viewers will have a wealth of programmes with in-depth interviews, archive action and weekly magazine shows.

EXTRA LIVE CONTENT: Through Sky's interactive service, fans can follow the action through on-board cameras, go behind the scenes with the teams in the pits, and follow race data, to take them further inside the sport.

wow..........

Will also subscribe to foxtel solely for the above skysports coverage if it's offered.. The AFL made me think about signing up, but this will seal the deal.

Not having to listen to that elf eared muppet and his sidekicks would just be a bonus

No mention of The Iceman bris?

Disappointing.

Kimi will be Kimi if he wins a race or not he will be there...it will be more interesting to see how the new upstart goes :) I will be rooting for Grosjean to hand it to him. BIG ask, and I dont think it will happen but Grosjean is in a great position to show whether he is a good driver or a little bit special as he grows through the year.

And really want to know what One have planned for 2012...I rang Foxtel the other week and they didnt have a clue what was happening with F1 coverage in 2012 :(

Well plenty to watch and root for this year. Grosjen at Renault. Senna in Williams. Disco Dan at STR. Petrov at Caterham and of course Webz be VeTool. As long as Hackilton eats armco and carbon fibre as much as he gags on cock 2012 will be a great year :thumbsup:

Nailed it.

I put $5 on webber to win. Nothing big but makes it a bit more interesting.

Also saw on the carsales website that Mercedes has somthing in store for Schumi, but it doesnt really say what it is. Any idea? Any point on putting money on him to win?

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
