    If anyone is watching Sky F1. You'll know we've just had the longest Ad break in the history of F1. I hope everything is OK but Sky should update viewers what is going on.

    BBC are reporting that FP2 will be delayed 15 minutes.

    Based on my time now, it'll start in about 2 minutes.

    Cheers

    Thanks for that info.
    Broadcast has just resumed. That was weird, a 20 or more min Ad break with no explanation.

    I wonder if it was the same on Sky in the UK ?
    Or was it a problem here with Foxtel ?
    Anyone watching on SkyF1 ?
