Man I had no idea this was live on youtube. Not geolocked in UK either! ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paMuZ48-c4k )

Is this available in any freaking country?

Alternately: are there any replays at all available?

I enjoyed watching fp1 and fp2, so many spins and offs while the drivers were figuring out the track. Makes me feel better about how badly I drive in PCars free practice rounds

I love that they broadcast all the sessions on youtube (provided you can VPN out into a country that it's not geoblocked in, using India right now). Watching these guys figure out the track, and finding the limits, with decent commentary, gives you a great picture of how the whole race develops.

If the posts on the FE subreddit are any indication, there won't be any more non-geoblocked VLC streams this year.

At least there is now a legit way to watch the races live in :finland: and a Eurosport Player subscription isn't massively expensive, I guess.

Yeah slightly obnoxious but at least Fox Sports airs the races live in the US on one of their channels. Currently watching quali time delayed on FS2

e: according to reddit, singapore is open on youtube, we'll see if it's open during the race.

Yeah I was all against our when I first started watching but the reality is, it's hardly ever used and even more rarely makes a huge difference. The window for using fan boost is so narrow (second car, before 50%) and the energy constraints that the drivers are running to means that they rarely hit the button, and even if they do, the car has to be set up for it before the race, so if you gently caress your quali car, chances are you're driving your fanboost car at the start of the race where it can't be used.
It's still dumb but it's not actively harmful to the racing imo
