There's a couple of episodes up on TVNZondemand. I wish they allowed downloads with their free stuff, so I could watch in on TV via the Xbox. (You can download their pay stuff, and this looks ok streamed to the TV.) Oh well, it looks quite good on my monitor anyway, just a bit jerky.

unlike many car races there are not many crashes in the redbull ,on the other hand there are not to many car races that bring 1.000.000 people out to watch them like the air races ,far more intresting watching planes do what they do ,than 20 plus car bumping each other and the ocational wipeout
each to there own though :thumbup:

Well I think I don't like it because it's not head to head, its timed like rally (which I also don't like)
Perhaps also because its not very big in NZ, there's no other coverage apart from the race itself (build up, news). And the races used to be delayed by weeks. Need some NZ pilots I think, so the coverage is more comprehensive >nzflag<
