Hey, Ed, I'm in Japan and Fuji-TV shows all the races and qualifying sessions. Malaysia Saturday's qualifying is on at 2pm, Sunday's quals are on at 12pm and the race is at 4pm. Just thought you might like another country on your list. Of course, I might be the only one here in Japan.

TV Zulu is the "young" daughter channel of the Danish TV2.
We used to have only one goverment owned non-commercial channel, then in the mid 1980ies we got a new commercial but still goverment owned channel TV2. Now we have a couple of million channels like all other countries, but the qualitu is so poor on all of them, that less TV is actually watched. Except for certain sporting events, I rather sit in front on the komputer than watch one of 711 different, improve your houce, garden, life, boyfriend, girlfriend, lose weight, gain weight, cooking with Jackie, Bob, the bald chef, the fat lady, gumbo, Emeril, Iron Chef, consumer news, archives........

Looks like this is a worldwide trend
In the 90's we had 4 or 5 channels (depending on where you lived) and then analouge cable came along increasing that to 50 or so and now digital is here and we have 100's most of it is RUBBISH, yeah lots of cooking and travelling and time shifted channels and payperview
Yet F1 coverage is given exclusively to a free to air channel and apart from the race in Oz and the early morning ones like US and Canada we get a delayed feed of the race. Nothing else
Can't see why they don't have a clause forcing Ten to allow a cable channel to cover all the races live when they can't.

In India, we have no issues in watching any sport(popular ones) live.
Here we have 4 sports channels.DD sports,ESPN,Star Sports,Ten Sports.
These channels split the sports and events between them which helps us in viewing all the major sports live

be it Football/Soccer(EPL,CHAMPIONS LEAGUE, SPANISH) ,F1,Cricket,Golf,TennisBaseball,NBA,Pool & Billiards etc.etc.
