    There will be other options. I remember before I got Foxtel i used to watch on a member only website. I will dig it up later today, I am sure they will be back in action if they start taking streams down.

    Fox own Speed btw.

    Thanks Mat. Might do the subscribe to Speed only via Xbox deal they have. Think it's 20 buck/mth.

    Yeah I knew they owned them, but over the last couple of years Speed streams seem to be left alone most of the time, whilst Fox very often played the shut them down as fast as they pop up game.

    Do you have to have the $120/mth package for it Matt? Called them when it was announced last year and they tried to me thats the only way I could get it. And I aint paying that for 1 channel I want. And don't want to encourage Foxtel as well. Destroying any sport they get their hooks into, like A League and NRL.

    Yeah, sadly it is the $120/mth package. You have to by basic, plus sport. They have a deal they are advertising at the moment for $105 p/month i think it is.

    I don't watching anything but the sport channels but I suck it up considering how much I watch. Also good to upgrade to the HD channels. Fox1,2,3, AFL Channel, ESPN, Eurosport, SPEED - Heaven!

    Also, Marcos is complaining a lot of being tight. Seems they are little off on setup during the heat of the day. Marcos pitting this lap.

    I don't like to see him crash, glad he is ok. But I am glad he won't be in the 500. He doesn't deserve to hog one of those starting spots. And coming up onto the race track like? Amateur...

    I am not a fan of hers at all. But you do that in open wheelers to protect your head, she is still going to have that reflex for a long while.

    All that fat in that hotdog or whatever that thing was is messin with your thinking.

    Guess it looks a bit girlie on TV, but the only reason every driver does not do the same is that they are "not good enough" to stay calm enough to make themselves do it in that split second.

    It's not just open wheelers, I'm sure everyone who has ever raced anything has been told to release the wheel when they hit.

    Yeah that was what looked Girlie. But that must take even more calm and fast reactions to do.

    And it's obviously to stop her hands/arms flailing about in a roll, and being cut off, in an open top wreck. Nothing to do with fear or protecting her head.

    I was always told to cross them over my chest, but everyone has different ways of doing it. I've only rolled once but I remember being really glad I did do it once it was over.

    True, across chest is the normal way I think.
