The interesting thing about the online rights is that they are completely independant from TV - so given the fact it's a 1 year deal, we could end up with a situation in the future where ITV show the races on TV but the BBC or someone else win the streaming rights. |

Maybe TPL could bid for the streaming rights? I'm sure we'd have no shortage of volunteers for the commentary positions! |

Haha, it's useless. You'd think though that the way they are parading this on their website that they will at least get it right. |

The last time I went to watch something on ITV.com it told me it wasn't available despite advertising it on the same page! |

This seems on the face of it to be good news.... However for those whose ISPs have capped download limits..... To be honest this, and the BBC i-player etc will all cause the same problems...... |

I can't even get it. Probably the internet system here, it doesn't allow live timing to work either. Good job I'm home tomorrow! |

Can you get BBC iPlayer at uni, Chris? Looks (superficially, at least) to be the same software. |

Yeah that for the most part works fine. The page just keeps freezing whenever I try and access it. As for live timing, it updates every 30 seconds. So not very live! |
