Can't watch F1 for what ever reason this weekend. This site has live streaming ....F1 Streaming There is about a 30 second delay, but it is very watchable. Presently showing qualifying.

Because of the settings, the UK viewers will get that message. Not sure of the exact reasons, but because its falsifying the IP to look like a UK address, when a geniune UK IP logs on, it registers it incorrectly.

Are you sure that wasn't

"Sorry, rights restrictions prevent us from displaying the video and content to users within the UK",

which of course it due to the fact that (until 2009), ITV are IIRC the sole broadcasting rights-holders.

The ITV website offers streaming F1, live i believe. I havent watched the race on it but if im about i watch friday practice. And its great because theres no James 'the voice of formula one' Allen talking rubbish over the top of it!

I have to agree the practice feed is great. You get the live mic from the garages with proper volume so you can actually hear what their discussing, far more interesting than Allen

How odd.

I've tried to watch quite a few sports events but often get told I can't get it because I'm in the UK...

...so I got Sky Sports instead! Grin
