I like twitter, because there isn't the long rambling rants that some people (on other forums of course) sometimes engage in, but it does mean that you have to be rather forthright, to get your point across. I agree, it could have been worded better. |

No. You're perfectly entitled to your opinion like anyone else, including Hindy and RLM......

Half the time I careless about the commentary. A "recognized voice" is great to hear, but I do my own commentating in my mind Watching Indycar the other day, the commentators were going on about some driver "driving through the field" because he made a pass on Bourdais, then gets repassed by Bourdais. It was a battle for one position, not a drive through the field. Montoya on the other hand was driving through the field. They finally noticed this and talk his position gain when he reached 4th place.
I like commentating when they do interviews with drivers. Imo the pit reporters are more valuable to the information. But thats my opinion and others probably adore rlm and such. Nothing wrong with that. They haven't called Toyota 'Peugeot'! |

It's a good sign for those wanting to watch for free of course but bad in a sense that the ACO hasn't been noted of this enormous loophole. Changing the address and hiding it from their poorly secured web site would probably raise some confidence for their service (same goes for payment bypass) that has already caused much noise in the actual content side of things. If you do want to enforce such paywall policy - whether it's idiocy or not - then at least prepare it properly.
They'll probably try something for LM... one would think |

You know what, if these LM sessions were broadcasted on their LM-only paywall stream (and assuming they fixed their obvious site security issues) I might've just been tempted to go for it
* Test Day - all eight hours in proper stream, not static cam * Second Saturday support race (merged Porsche Cup) + maybe something extra like Friday parade, or scrutineering ... but since it's pretty obvious they're not gonna bother and all the rest* are on Eurosport anyway it's pretty obvious to go for ES * well Eurosport TV hasn't showed the first two hours of 4h Free Practice in the recent years but there's usually natural sounds stream on Eurosport Player to sub for that Anyway one can only hope they don't wait until last possible second again to announce what their LM package contains. If it's just "qualifying and race" without on-demand like for all the others it's pretty craptastic value for money when compared to Eurosport Player |

Oh, cheers for that.
Though since it's not part of the usual FFSA package that weekend, does it really get covered? The second support race is always a bit harder to catch if you're not there in person. 2013 and 2011 Ferrari Challenges were broadcasted on channels that cover those series for full season, but the '12 AMR festival had nothing and idk if there was anything for the previous French Carrera Cup race either? |
