Italian GP: Ask for the TV schedule!
The Italian Grand Prix takes place this weekend. In Monza, the drivers will experience the most impressive speeds of the season. With peaks recorded at over 330 km/h, it's the race not to be missed. To help you plan your weekend, here are the TV schedules for the 2011 Italian Grand Prix.
The Rugby World Cup begins on Friday on TF1. However, no match is expected to disrupt the broadcasts of the 2011 free practice sessions on Eurosport or the race on Sunday.
You are now accustomed, on Saturdays, TF1 no longer broadcasts Formula 1 qualifications live… A summary of the qualifications, lasting a few minutes, will be offered shortly before 8:00 PM. However, you can follow the qualifications live on Eurosport. The free channel TF1 will offer a fast-paced replay of the qualifying sessions late at night, around 1:50 AM.
To increase your chances of following the Italian Grand Prix qualifications, a live commentary will be available directly on the site, as it has been for every qualification this 2011 season. The qualifications and the Grand Prix will take place at 2 PM, as with all other European Grand Prix.
Marion Jollès and Denis Brognard will present the Grand Prix on the starting grid while Jean-Louis Moncet, Jacques Laffite, and Christophe Malbranque will be in the booth to comment on the practice sessions, the qualifications, and the race.
