F1 TV Coverage in the US

I just visited and downloaded the great F1 highlights of recent races
at http://www.racesimcentral.net/;I receive the Speedvision broadcast
which actually pulls the feed from the local host TV network. HOWEVER,
this feed doesn't come close to the great in car shots that are shown
in these clips at formulaone.iscool. Who carries this broadcast and is
it available in the US? Also, are there any commercial videos that
would include these kind of highlights? Thanks!

  From what I understand(shaddup youse guys!) The Multiple feeds of F1 are
currently shown via a pay per view or even pay per camera arrangement, and I
think it's only available in Europe.  There are viewing packages that can be
purchased if you receive certain sattellite or cable packages in Euroland.

Yeah, those clips look like the Euro digital F1 feed (owned by Bernie
Ecclestone, I think).  I'd love to get that here in Canada.  I wonder how
much that'd cost...

join the club, us aussies would love digital in the first place atm :)

When I spent some time in germany I got to see some races in digital, you
can select the directors cut, leaders, midfield, pits, and current
standings. Pretty fancy this digital stuff! I really miss those cameras in
the mirror and behind the steering wheel, you really see the drivers working
away.
