They added a feature on our DVR that automatically pops up and asks you if you want to extend your recording by 30 minutes. You can change the amount of extension, but the default is 30. It only does this on sporting events. I recorded a b-ball game the other day and it popped up.
Great feature for the races that run over.

alright first couple of sessions are over for practice for Australia. And the McLaren boys are on top. I love Button, he is such a calm driver but he has fun with whatever car he is driving.

Pretty pumped to see Schumacher back up near the top of the board
thanks for everyones help on teaching me how to get the BBC feeds. looking forward to trying it this weekend.

Anyone want to give any predictions

mine

Button, Vettel, Hamilton

I'll hold off on predictions until qualifying. I haven't seen any of the practice sessions yet but I did read that some folks think McLaren were running light fuel...

they havent mentioned them on the f1 website but i suspect the teams arent running very many flying laps at once qualifying will show some but the race on sunday will be it.

The wheels will be color coded as well so you can tell which of the 6 they are

I agree. I'll make a prediction after Q!

Cool, thanks! If anyone sees any specific broadcasts, please post! The search function on there seems like a mess.

Yeah it is. You just have to try a bunch of query terms before you find it.

Whoa! I just finished watching qualifying and Vettel is just insane! I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this kid is gonna dominate F1 like Schumacher did for the next few years. Almost a whole second faster than Hamilton in Q3!

Default Let the 2011 Season Begin!

Interesting Q session last night (errr....this morning.....) Looks like it's Sebastian and "everyone else"........

- Glad to see the McLaren's have gotten a little better from early test sessions

- Vettel is apparently in a different area code....

- Will be interesting to see if the HRT guys will be allowed to race -- 107% rule -- think I heard they were something like ~17 MPH slower than Vettel -- can you say "rolling chicane"......

- As much as I like to watch the F1 races live and track Live Timing, this race will probably be a DVR viewing tomorrow morning (makes for a good warm up for the Fontana race).....

Vettel does look quick. He will be hard to match. It seems that the tires will play a big role here. I think after Q i feel safe with at least my trifecta of

Button, Vettel, Hamilton

just maybe not in that order. Should be a good race. I tried getting some of the streams going to watch Qualifying but i gave up. Ill try a few other ideas tomorrow to watch the race instead of the speed. Either way I have the speed one DVRd

Vettel is amazing. I think he sold his soul...lol

I like the new drivers that are up and coming. This should make for a good season.
