If the Alpine is going to fall apart going over a bump on the straights I can’t wait to see it bounce over some curbs!

digging the new graphics and that we have chaos from the jump, thanks Ocon

also Hulk having a rough time of learning these new cars as well, if that brake lock-up is any indication.

There’s little grey boxes to the right of the timing tower graphic that show a “P” and they are basically illegible on live coverage. Bet they looked great on the mock-ups though!

I was totally wrong here, I guess the F1 live channel is the "good" channel and F1 international is the Crofty channel. I miss the pit lane channel.

God they've really gutted everything that made PLC different and interesting and given us more boring white men droning on. Sorry Sam and Rosanna maybe we'll still let you host preview shows and hang around the pits.

Sam is in the pits today, maybe he’ll be this season’s Karun?

Unlike ships, cardboard and cardboard derivatives are allowed in F1.

Feels like first practice of the season in new cars is going to be very technical so not surprised they have Sam on the main channel.

What's the best way to watch f1 tv pro on a TV? Casting from my laptop is probably lower res? I've got a LG 55CX OLED, don't think there are f1 tv apps for it?

The in-helmet camera seems to be better! It’s still way over saturated but is stabilized better.

There’s an unofficial F1TV android TV app.

I also used the browser and watched F1 through that on a Samsung.

Do these cars sound differently at all? Wasn’t that supposed to be a small change?

With that Latifi onboard, I thought the car sounded a bit different, but i don’t know what kind of trickery the broadcast could be pulling

Listening to the Merc onboard, I’d say lower sound with more growl.

They don’t sound that different on the broadcast but it’s hard to tell without close up audio.

Alpine is pretty stupid for actually running with sidepods. Obviously the better strategy is to have no sidepods at all. loving amateurs.

I’ve got the same tv and yea there’s no f1 app, but I’ve got mine hooked straight to my desktop so I’m just using it as a 3rd monitor

I doubt the f1 app is streaming ultra high res anyway, but the colors really pop on this tv so it’s good enough
