I'm not sure exactly what they are offering, but The Sun Online claims to be hosting the A1GP online for free. I'd assume it must be delayed coverage, and might only be the actual races, but for anyone interested who doesn't have TV coverage, it might be worth a look. Link |

I think it's free on their official website as well (http://www.a1gp.com), but in the previous two seasons it was only in the host country, for example it was only available online in Britain when the race was at Brands Hatch. Whether they have changed it for this season I'm not sure As for free TV coverage, RTE in the Republic of Ireland show free coverage, but unfortunately you need an analogue aerial to receive this as Sky Digital block the signal when they are similtaniously broadcasting an event |

It's not the link GS but that looks like a better link and will probably give you coverage of every round, whereas on the official website you can only watch coverage if you are in the host country |

I wonder if you could get around this by using proxies? Not an issue for me as we have Sky Sports, but it could be something to look into for those of you without. |

I'm going to try the SopCast coverage in Grandslammer's link. Hopefully it will work, but I'll have Sky Sports on standby just in case! |
