They started blocking access to the F1TV's website on Firefox...

Funny how everything works like it used to when I use an extension to pretend to be Chrome

Fortunately MultiViewer still works

Oh wow they did. That's sucky.

Glad to hear Multiviewer's still working.

I am using the extension Chrome Mask for this

Wow they don't even support Linux? I was excited to get f1tv this season for all the onboards and timing. Now I don't have to feel bad about about using streaming sites, except for you know, the experience of using those sites.

Firefox isn't Linux. Anyway, F1TV doesn't officially support Firefox on neither Linux and Android, even when using the new TV pairing feature...

That was me checking their website and seeing that they don't support Linux. I've only been watching for a few years and never looked into f1tv before.

Chromium should work out of the box for f1tv

Edit: Chromium on Linux spits out a bm1200 error so that does not work here.

MultiViewer (which is an unofficial program, mind you) does support Linux, but you need to download the installer manually to install and update.

Other than that it works great

That sounds promising, I'll look into it thanks

For a second there, I thought I missed a Mercedes announcement of a new driver. 😄

Is he going by Andrea, Kimi or Andrea-Kimi? F1's site isn't prepared for this yet in some cases.

They couldn't figure out how to display Zhou either when he joined, but managed to integrate it properly until his first race. Should be fixed until then as well I suspect
