Abu Dhabi: Check the TV schedule!
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will be broadcast on several television channels for French-speaking Europeans. TF1, RTS1 or 2 (in Switzerland), La Une or La Deux (in Belgium) ... To avoid getting lost, casinoenlignefrance.eu.com offers you a recap of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix broadcasts thanks to the TV schedule.
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix has been held as a twilight race since its addition to the calendar in 2009. The advantage is the timing, as despite the distance, Europeans can watch the qualifying and the race at 2 PM!
TF1 will broadcast the race in its entirety starting at 1:55 PM. The F1 à la Une team will present the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2012 a few minutes earlier with a magazine from the channel’s Paris studios. Franck Montagny will notably be interviewed by Denis Brogniart.
Eurosport, a pay channel available on cable, the web, and as an option on ISPs’ TV packages, will broadcast free practice sessions and qualifying live and in full. TF1, on the other hand, will offer a condensed rerun during the night from Saturday to Sunday.
Attention, you will not be able to watch the Grand Prix on TF1 from the channel’s iPad or iPhone application, as the rights are exclusively reserved for TV.
Also note that the editorial team will as usual offer a live commentary of the qualifying session on Saturday starting from 1:45 PM to follow the evolution of the rankings live and in total conviviality. You will also be able to ask your questions live to the editorial team.
