Folks.. I'm off on my honeymoon in the norning and my new bride is very understanding..
Does anyone know what channels they have there that might cover the Brazilian Grand Prix? Tips on where would also be appreciated!  _________________ Just a hopelessly addicted F1 fan... |

First of all spen - congratulations to you and your new bride! Hope you'll both be very happy together. Enjoy the honeymoon, Barbados is lovely and I think this is supposed to be a great time to go! Where are you staying?
I was there this summer and I'm not sure if you'll catch the race in your hotel anyway... Our hotel had a decent enough selection of channels, but they were mostly american so that could make it tricky. And the reception in one of the rooms we had wasn't great at all. However there did seem to be some Latin stations, maybe on a long shot you'll find it there given it's in Brazil? Very long shot though.
Your best bet will probably be to talk to the staff at reception and see if they know a bar or anywhere that might be showing it. I think there's a sports bar between St. Lawrence's Gap and Bridgetown if you're in that neck of the woods but unfortunately I can't remember it's name. Sorry, wish I could be more help!
Anyway, have a ball - there's always internet cafes and live timing  |

PS Thanks for the good wishes.. We're staying somewhere at Silver Sands.. Between the airport and Oistins I think? Oistins looks right up my street! _________________ Just a hopelessly addicted F1 fan... |

Just for the record.. If you happen to find yourself in Barbados, desperate to watch a major sporting event.. The answer is Bubba's Sports Bar, Rockley Main Road, Christ Church, Barbados (between Lawrence Gap & Bridgetown).. I got to watch the Rugby there too! _________________ Just a hopelessly addicted F1 fan... |
