The Speed Channel will kicks off its 10th consecutive year of F1 broadcasting, with live coverage of the season-opening Australian Grand Prix on March 5.

Speed will broadcast 15 of the 19 in 2005 live, together with live coverage of qualifying for all 19 events and weekend race replays on Sundays.

"F1 racing is a very integral part of the heritage of this network," said Speed Channel President Jim Liberatore. "When Fox purchased Speed in 2001, one of the first things we went to work on was a multi-year deal with F1 - recognizing its importance to our viewers. Since then, we have added the archival gem F1 Decade and we continue discuss ways to grow this very passionate audience."

In addition to the 15 live events, Speed Channel also will re-broadcast four additional races scheduled to air on CBS in 2005.
