Does anyone know why the race starts an hour later than qualifying (19:00 and 18:00 respectively)?

Probably to ensure that the race clashes with NASCAR’s finale so F1 fails again in the States.
I think the real reason is just to start the race a bit later; the local start time is 1pm now, starting a GP at noon seems a bit early doesn’t it?

BBC qualifying’s at 21:00, not 22:30 – http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01p1nm5

@tomsk Thanks for pointing that out, however elsewhere on their site it says 22:30:

At this point on a race weekend I’ve usually had an email from them with confirmation of the times. One hasn’t appeared yet, I’ll chase it up.

When races are in this time zone the BBC’s highlights-only coverage is particularly annoying – it’s on too late, especially on Sunday night when I need to get up for work the next day. I know they’re prevented from showing it any earlier but it’s these instances where I most feel the loss of the live coverage and feel like I’m missing out – had the same problem with Canada as well.

In the age of Internet such time lapse is pathetic.

Record the events for viewing later and where ear plugs between.

@jcost I’m not sure what the internet has to do with it, they’re not allowed to show it live.

Because via the internet you can watch any live sports stream from any broadcaster in the world in real time

Well they have to show highlights, and they have to be edited, and that takes time. What’s the problem here?

I bet every single person in the beeb is routing for Alonso this weekend. It would be pretty embarrassing for them if they missed the title being won in the inaugural race at Cota.

Anyone know what the support races are this weekend? And if they’ll be shown anywhere.
Shame that V8 Supercars got so badly treated in Abu Dhabi.

This listing gives something called HGP, Pirelli GT3 Cup Trophy USA West (try saying that three times fast!) and Ferrari Challenge as the support classes. So nothing too major.

Historic Grand Prix, if I’m not mistaken.

Gonna be quite the novelty with the late starts this weekend, kinda like Canada 2011 without the endurance-esque session.
