British Grand Prix: Check the TV Schedule!
To properly follow the 2011 British Grand Prix, already the ninth round of the 2011 F1 season on your screens, here is the TV schedule: the channels, the timings, as well as information on radio stations offering audio broadcasts, in France, Switzerland, and Belgium!
You are now used to it, TF1 no longer broadcasts Formula 1 qualifying live… Only a summary of the qualifying sessions lasting a few minutes will be offered shortly before 8:00 PM.
So it is Eurosport that takes over. TF1 will offer a delayed broadcast late at night, around 1:45 AM.
The qualifications for the British Grand Prix will, however, be available live on the website via a specially dedicated live feed as has been the case for each qualification this 2011 season. For your information, despite the one-hour time difference, Silverstone and F1 will align with European time to maintain the usual time slots in Europe. Therefore, the qualifications and the Grand Prix will take place at 2 PM in France.
No change in presenters. The Grand Prix is still presented by the trio Moncet / Malbranque / Laffite, whether on Eurosport or TF1. Marion Jollès and Denis Brognard will present the Grand Prix on the starting grid. Refer to the table for further details.
Attention:
Eurosport will not broadcast Free Practice 2 live to cover the Tour de France. A replay will be offered a little before 8 PM on Friday.
Swiss, beware:
Please note that TSR2 will not broadcast the British Grand Prix qualifications live, favoring the Davis Cup and the Tour de France. However, the qualifications will be broadcast in delayed coverage.

The British GP on the Radio
You can also follow the Grand Prix if you don’t have a TV by listening to it on the radio. The frequencies naturally depend on where you live, and several radio stations will broadcast the Grand Prix live – why not do without images for once?
The hours are therefore identical to those presented in the Live.
RTL and RMC will broadcast the race while Europe 1 will broadcast the race and the qualifications live.
