Beware - BBC website has result on front page. Not even via a link!
Seems they are deliberately sabotaging their own replay show.

I've always watched replay shows (F1 or football) knowing the result. You just cannot escape it now so I don't try.
The BBC are no longer a major sports channel so it shouldn't surprise you that the website has to have the most up to date information directly on the front page.
Still a pain in the butt though.

Motor sport on BBC 4  Sunday April 1 21.00 - (repeat at 01.10). However, at the back of my mind there's a feeling this just might be a repeat from a long while ago.

The same producer, who seems to have a penchant for making motor racing progs, also made Grand Prix: The Killer Years in 2011 so it could be a very recent programme. Though I too have a feeling I've seen something very similar, maybe five or six years ago which I think had Murray Walker as narrator.

Indeed! Makes for a long days' viewing though, with the support races including the open-wheelers. Which brings me to mention that anyone who can find tomorrow's itinerary is a more patient man than me.

Thanks for that, they hide it in the cupboard. There's no Formula Renault this year, they had only six entries! Very telling in money-terms at this level.

MotoGP restarts on Sunday - live from Qatar 9pm on Eurosport but only a late recording on BBC1 (11.25pm). Has the Beeb done a Sky-F1 type deal and just not bothered to tell anyone?

Nah, that's par for the course. The first day of BTCC was a cracker for scrap metal fans. Looked like everyone had decided to spend their spare-parts budgets in one go! Plato was cheesily overconfident as usual - attempting to overtake on the grass was only going to end one way. I missed the last race but I'll watch it tonight.

Yes, the BTCC was fantastic, I missed the first race but the others were great!

Okay, I won't watch it tonight, it's not available on the ITV player yet. Contracts, phatooey!

Missed it. Even with all the viewing options - duh! I can't be bothered now!
Just looked at the BBC F1 website, it's still a grotty design and there appears to be little activity. I get the feeling there are restrictions even on what they can put on the website... well, that is one of the things I'd insist on if I were Sky!
