Practice - Friday, March 26, 2:00am EST
Qualifying - Saturday, March 27, 1:30am EST
Melborne GP - Sunday, March 28, 1:30am EST

Didn't see anything about a re-broadcast during more normal hours (boy, I'm getting old) but I would be surprised if they didn't repeat both qualifying and the race later in the day.
Yup, same thing I see

Hoping the Red Bull cars can have some reliability to take the fight to Ferarri. Seb was kicking ass in boreain until the spark plug issue.

im very sad to see Bruno in a really struggling team.. i hope to see him in a decent team next year.. maybe he'll shine in the wet races?

To me, a borning race is better than no race at all. Looking forward to watching practice tomorrow (vcr is my friend).

Interesting read...

[QUOTE]MARCH 24TH 2010
The Australian GP preview

With the forgettable Bahrain Grand Prix consigned to the history book, Formula 1 is praying that the start to the 2010 season will improve at the typically chaotic Albert Park circuit. Mark Glendenning assesses its chances

Doug, funny story. I have 2 vcr's, one in the family room and one downstairs (which is older and only plays and fast foward forward, no rewind, no record). So I recorded last week's qualifying on the 'good' vcr and, later in the day, decided to watch it on the downstairs tv. I popped in the tape and hear 'grrrrrindddddd' and the vcr goes dark. I tried everything, unplugging, plugging back in, hitting all the buttons, even the last-resort whack on the top. Nufin, DOA. With my tape of qualifying inside.

It may be time to look into a DVR.

When it rains, young Vettel will come out to play. Seriously the only wet race I loved after Hungaroring 2006 (Jenson & Fernando) was Vettel dominaing at Monza.

Hopefully Bruno has some of his uncle's rainmeister skills. If not it will be Vettel all the way. He is a versatile talent and is always delightful to watch.

I hate the off-season and the fact that practice and tests are not broadcast on TV Bahrain may have bored some folks, but I loved the fact that the season was back.
