safc_fan89 2 Feb 2006, 22:03 Since A1GP seems to be proving a hit and an interesting new idea, is there any chance a season review DVD or anything like that will come out once the season is up? I'm one of these unfortunate people that don't have access to Sky or any form of digital television, and it would be a shame to miss the action totally.
MikeHoyer 3 Feb 2006, 01:50 I imagine it will happen, I hope so anyway, because I've missed some of the races this year. Fortunately I did see the latest one!
Pete Fenelon 3 Feb 2006, 14:12 I'd hope for an A1GP DVD and/or annual, but their end of season falls at an awkward time so they'd miss the christmas present sales rush ;P

I've only seen the Brands Hatch races, so really I will have missed the majority of the season. Season reviews aren't the best way to follow a series but it's better than nothing.
I have not seen one race. For the last one, I tried a computer link but even it wasn't taking me there!
safc_fan89 5 Feb 2006, 13:03 I'm yet to find one too, because in this country the A1 website coverage is blocked, probably because Sky has the viewing rights.
hm would've thought they'll do and end of year one though, more money and all that lark.
safc_fan89 5 Feb 2006, 22:12 If they think it would sell, they would make one. I'm fairly sure it would, but so many review videos end up being a disappointment.
yeah for sure....but can you really see the sheikh turning it down? no idea on what profit margins are like from that kinda thing (nor what they'd expect it to be for the a1gp either) so obviously that's a factor that needs to be added in somewhere.

I'm puzzled, I've watched several of the races online from my BT broadband account!
so've i, through windows media player, but be surprised if they were saved somewhere...never say never though

Where from?
there's a link so you can get it through media player....haven't watched too many of them though, was sent over to me.
safc_fan89 6 Feb 2006, 20:27 It wasn't some dodgy Asian site was it?
nope, was the sky streaming somehow
safc_fan89 6 Feb 2006, 20:43 I think I managed to get that for the Brands Hatch race, but once it was out of this country it didn't work. And as of yet, I can't find live coverage or even copied coverage anywhere, unfortunately!
hm it's around somewhere.
safc_fan89 6 Feb 2006, 21:47 I guess I'm not looking hard enough then :)
Pete Fenelon 7 Feb 2006, 18:11 Where from?
http://www.a1gp.com/media
from here it said that you're outside of the band that can register for it, please supply email address so they'll let you know when you can view...
safc_fan89 7 Feb 2006, 20:53 I've given my email address over 10 times and had no response!!
I got these live stream links from another forum:

safc_fan89 7 Feb 2006, 22:16 I'll have to give them a try. Thanks a lot!
Next question, is there anywhere on the net that archives the A1GP races?
well, the a1gp site for starters does i think....
safc_fan89 7 Feb 2006, 23:17 I've had a look and can't find anything. You can download video footage of something for ipods and PSPs but that's not what I'm looking for as I have neither.
I've emailed the site to enquire about it.
Today I purchased the 2006/07 series review DVD. Quite good really.
I can't wait for season three to start.

Available in Australia from JB Hi Fi or Borders Books.

dazbaz_99 24 Sep 2007, 11:24 Is it an official product? If it is then im suprised it has not been released globally. Its not available through the A1GP Merchandising website.
What region is the DVD?

The region is ALL.
Lee McKenzie introduces the "end of season review".
Ben Edwards and John Watson commentate over the edited highlights.
I am sure it is official, but like you I am surprised that it appears only to be released in Australia. (Although that would explain the picture of the Aussie team on the front cover)
