Just a heads up for those in the US, sunday's gran prix will be shown on CNBC at 7:30am ET and then a replay on NBC sports at 11:00am ET. Don't want anyone to miss the race........Rubbertire.

Wow, I have never seen F1 tires come apart so fast, well maybe at the beginning last year but still Wow. There is so much rubber flying around it looks close to dangerous, get hit in the helmet with a pizza slice size piece of rubber at 190mph, that can't be good.......RT

Nah it was always hard/medium for Sepang

Yup, my bad. Could have sworn I read hard/soft but I was wrong......RT

Pirelli has changed up the tires for this race, was supposed to be Hard/Soft now it's Hard/Medium. Interesting.....RT

Next week we get to see the the hard and soft tires for the first time, maybe they will be closer to the magic number in pit tops.....RT

I think it probably depends on the circuit. Some circuits need spicing up with pit stops, other certainly do not. The amount of stops for Monaco or Hungary might be different from, say, Spa or Brazil. I had not considered that, years ago when they could run flat out and 1 stop I was wishing for jus...

Some good points, my perfect number is 1 stop if you run easy and 2 if you push hard the whole race. I must admit it was exciting......RT

For me, 2 is the right number. Drivers can push hard and race, simple as that......RT

Tires!!!
How many pit stops were there? I lost count after 4, even TV coverage stopped putting a number on them.

Nice to see massa up in the thick of things again......RT

Looking at the schedule for next weeks race it seems we will only see one practice, FP1. Nothing else until qualifying. Not good! I'm still not sure about this streaming thing, is Universal Sports Network where they plan to stream races? If so they seem to have no information on anything to do with ...

What time is practice 3? I don't see it listed on the NBC site or Tvguide .com......RT

Practice 3 (Fri) 23:00 - (Sat) 00:00

I'd like to see hot and dry, with all the tiny sidepods this year I'd like to see how the cars handle the heat.......RT

Hydrogen, Hmmm didn't think of that. Here are a few things I've been thinking about, 1, What would the car have to weigh to have a close to F1 performance, I quess they will run a 186,500 watt system(250 horse power). My quess would be roughly 600 pounds or 272 KG 2, To make all that power what volt...

Anyone have any thoughts on these electric cars, could be interesting. I'd like to see the specs and rules........RT

I too, think I'll miss Speed's coverage. I rebuilt my TIVO with a new, larger capacity harddrive in anticipation of the new 2013 season. My ears have been 'peaked'..and yet there seems to be zero information from NBC Sports. I already miss the fact that Bob Varsha won't be there to referee Steve an...

Slightly off topic, I'd like to see the DRS used anywhere, anytime just like qualifying over the past few years and unlike this year. Seems like that could add a lot of excitement and chance for error. On topic, A few DRS zones year could use some tweaking to be more effective so I'm glad to see att...

I believe you have to have a cable provider that offers the channel (NBC Sports Network) and then you can access the stream with your password from your provider. Not sure I understand? I would need to get in touch with my cable provider to obtain a password that I would use on the NBC Sports site ...

Right from the NBC Sports site, Friday, March 15 12:00 AM Formula One Racing "Australian Grand Prix, First Practice" 1:30 AM Formula One Racing "Australian Grand Prix, Second Practice" Seems like they changed up P1 to Not live, 2 days ago they had it listed live at 9:30 pm. I don't see any listing f...

I thought I read somewhere that everything was going to be streaming......RT

Practice 1, 3-14-13 9:30pm Eastern time
Practice 2, 3-15-13 1:30am ET
Note- Countdown to F1 begin's at 1:00am before P2 if you miss it 3-07-13..
Hope this info helps......RT

I've looked but can't find any info. I have a feeling I'm going to be missing SPEED more than I thought. I feel your pain, I've been sweating this for a while now. The NBC Sports site has very little info and there TV listings are poor. I found TVguide.com has far better listings, you can look 14 d...

I'm really sweating this 8O I've been watching on speed vision/speed since day 1 and have been 100% happy. I have my fingers crossed that NBC Sports does a good job, the NBC site has minimal information on Formula1. There TV listings leave a bit to be desired also. From what I have read they plan to...
