2024 Hankook Mexico E-Prix - Round 1 | Free Practice 1

[@Adam-fj9px]

I was going to give Formula E a chance this year, nevermind though because you've put it behind a paywall, great incentive to attract new fans

[@Mr.Belding]

This channel will get more views from highlights than viewers on TNT

[@Trendyflute]

I have my ways of watching FE but it needs to be easier for everyone guys. This sport is being held back by excessive broadcast limitations. That said thanks for putting practice live (and on your website it's got timing and the track map which is cool!) but that needs to extend into qualifying and races at a zero or very low cost that's easy to use, easy to find, easy to engage with...and it's not there. Not a problem for me but it's a problem for the sport and a lot of potential fans.

[@motornaut]

Really excited to watch this race... oh right, you sold out. Best of luck to you.

[@wiegraf9009]

Very hard to find a way to watch the race despite being a big fan 😢

[@eltone2009]

Looks like no Formula E for e this year then, As theres zero chance I'm subscribing to STAN for it.

[@emmaginger7160]

I'm so sad that the race has been put behind such an extortionate paywall. £30 a month is ridiculous. I love FE and have tickets to London. There has to be another way.

[@Fireglo]

Unfortunately there's not. The sport simply doesn't have enough support to be on freeview.

[@emmaginger7160]

@@FiregloI'm not sure putting behind a pay wall will encourage more support... especially when it is on a different pay wall to F1. It is marginalising a sport in its infantcy

[@Is_this_username_unique]

They should do what NASCAR does - put the full race replay up on their KZbin channel a week after the race. Those who can't afford the paywall can then still then enjoy the sport.

[@Fireglo]

@@Is_this_username_unique I thought that's what they're doing?

[@Fireglo]

@@emmaginger7160 they're not trying to "encourage more support" they're trying to survive at this point.

[@keirangeorge9046]

Ive watched this sport every season and defended it when others have shat on jt, but not now. Absolutely crazy to put it behind such an expensive paywall. Sort it out.

[@B-A-L]

Me too!

[@aarongreenfield6142]

It's ashame I can't watch qualifying or the race legally. Huge loss for Formula E. I was a massive fan but if I can't watch it easily I'll quickly loose interest.

[@CharlieT_PhotoG]

Tuesday 25th August 2015. The first memory myself and my Dad shared of Formula E, watching the cars being tested at Donington Park. We got to meet many of the drivers, meet the team behind the sport and learn openly about the idea and concept in its entirety from some absolutely awesome people. After 9 years of support, I can’t believe the sports TV rights have been bought out, and therefore the sport all but vanishing unless you can fork out an extra 30 pounds per month! Another body showing they’re completely out of touch, though I suppose it’s expected in todays days and age. Deeply, deeply sad to see.

[@sandracatani4539]

i was there as well it was a fantastic day. now the arabs have taken over the sport they have spoilt it for everyone

[@ShadowWolfe]

While I'm not from the UK, I'd like to echo the opinions of everyone else and the disasterous choices that were made with the TV rights. The US coverage was bad enough by putting it on CBS with sub-par commentary and commercials interrupting the action, but now you lock it behind a paywall? An easily accessible sport has now turned its back on the fanbase, and it's very easy to repair the damage done. 1) The feed needs to be the same worldwide. Mostly so us US viewers don't have said sub-par commentary and interrupting commercials. 2) Make the events free to watch 24 hours after, right on this channel. TNT already has their money from the deal as well as their initial airing. They don't need more money for a whole week. 3) Do better with playlist sorting. The 2023 season needs to be in its own playlist, not scattered about aimlessly in weekend-only playlists.

[@shaunthomas9393]

if it anything i can make a playlist and make it public if you like

[@Vyse1984]

The shift to Roku for most of the races does help on the US end.

[@dj.m682]

Why is there no chat replay? Censoring anti TNT comments because you're not proud of the deal?

[@dionysusnu3881]

Check again, chat replay is available like normal. Idk about this TNT deal, but the constant whining about it is annoying. Deal with it or move on.

[@TriViuM2k22]

If they were censoring the comments then there wouldn't be so many negative comments. Stop whining.

[@the-smelly-hippie]

​@@dionysusnu3881how about you deal with the backlash or as you said move on.

[@sazzycool]

​@@dionysusnu3881we're "whining" cos we can no longer watch formula e in UK. They want us to pay £30 a month which is daylight robbery!

[@RealVloger549]

Can someone pls upload Quali and races 😢😢

[@B-A-L]

Nothing free about Formula E anymore!

[@fiomidemeteor9776]

What exactly is the point of my watching free practice 1 if i cant afford to watch quali or the race. £30/month. It costs £210 to watch formula e this year whilst last year it was free. Goodbye to my favourite motorsport of all time because its been put behind a horrificly expensive paywall

[@Daffywero]

Dios, yo queria ir, pero la chamba no deja

[@allanchapman6250]

Would Love to see them go around Bathurst ?

[@LemonyTang]

Talk about alienating your core demographic. I thought formula e promoted exclusivity and diversity. Pay wall litraly is the opposite to your message.

[@TotesRandom]

You do realize the words exclusive and diverse are polar opposites, right? 😄

[@the-smelly-hippie]

​@@TotesRandomclearly meant to say inclusivity

[@leviandhiro3596]

FE needs a version of F1TV

[@YTstylehandle]

Agreed. They have an app, so the foundation is there, and plenty of examples of how to do it (F1, WRC)

[@thehellion9992]

I would like to know how much the viewing figures will be down... Note to Formula E. When I was a kid there was 3 Channels.. Now I have the choice in my leisure time to watch hundreds of channels and if you include You Tube many thousands. of creators a lot that put out very interesting and professionally produced content. I have given up on Formula 1 I will now give up on Formula E and give my precious time to someone else who I think will appreciate it more.

[@Sackboiiiiiii]

Can’t wait for the race 😊

[@kakhak]

So, you do love to watch how vacuum cleaners race.

[@356rah]

For the 10th season formula e is streaming on the Roku channel in USA much better than the limited coverage on CBS. Bummer that UK viewers don’t have the same access. What about other countries?

[@jobian1279]

exited for the new season of FE!!!

[@elijahelwick2712]

I'm a student in the UK 🇬🇧 and I am a big motorsports fan. £30 a month is absolutely bonkers especially since Formula E was growing in popularity, F1 is £5-10 cheaper live and Channel 4 show a decent highlights coverage for free, it would of at least made sense if you mixed it into a subscription with F1 or other motorsports like Moto GP, WEC, WRC, NASCAR, IMSA and Indycar. £30 is crazy and really greedy.

[@Fireglo]

The difference being F1 has about 500 million more viewers so they can offer cheaper subcriptions. Just be grateful you got it for free for so long. No one can offer a free service forever.

[@christophercrowe912]

Post 2023 races!

[@Paul_C]

And they say 'flying is bad for the environment' so they promote each race to have the most flying possible? Welcome to E racing.

[@GabrielPurusha]

When does IT start?The transmission on Eurosport îs live?

[@daviddanser8011]

Where can I watch races ?

[@gabrielrodolfobruno5875]

VAMOS SACHA FENESTRAZ TODAVIA

[@kakhak]

First free practice of the vacuum cleaners.

[@AlistairWebb-c5c]

I am appalled that formula e is now lost behind a pay wall. It's fine if you spend your life glued to the tv watching sports. I don't and will probably not be following the series now. Shame on you

[@chyira8077]

They all look the same with different paint schemes! Jaguar looks col!

[@TriViuM2k22]

It's a spec series. So of course they all look the same.

[@Gareebf1]

4k please

[@KGI_KlikoNL]

DC!

[@davidbrown8517]

I hope nobody subscribes to TNT Sports 4 and they go bust. Thank goodness Formula E is on KZbin.

[@er624]

Formula E ruined in the UK thank you

[@fakhruddinhawari5516]

Can't wait for the race

[@rayklatt7818]

These things look like a Brabham BT49 from the early 1980s. Was that car before it’s time, or are these things backward?

[@fritzkreig1314]

🎉🎉🎉

[@Ale-bj7nd]

In Italy its a mess to watch. What makes you think that broadcasting on Eurosport the race and Mediaset the qualifications is a good idea? The last ywar everything was on Sky Sport and it was a good quality broadcast. This year is gonna be depressing.

[@the-smelly-hippie]

Way to kill the sport i love, now i cant watch anymore 😭

[@fragglenum]

Formula e using the f1 model and pricing out anyone who isn’t rich.

[@nishilkakaya4068]

It's an absolute joke that everyone has to pay £30 a month so per year that is £360 I can't believe it congratulations for taking away a free aired sport away from all of us.

[@nikkic36]

Thx for getting greedy formula e. I’ve watched since season 1 but I’m not paying a subscription for a channel I’ll only use for formula e. You’ve lost a fan

[@B-A-L]

Same here! Nothing else on the subscription service that interests me.
