you can get plenty and there a german tv with 6 channels from germany.
Hello everyone,
I am seriously considering returning to South Africa (used to live there
from 1971 to 1986 and my family still live there) but I have some
questions regarding TV programmes.
1) Can I get any European satelite channels?
2) Is there access to any German language channels?
3) What sort of coverage is available for Formula One racing?
Bear in mind that I'm not worried about how much a set up to receive and
decode the signals will be, as long as they are legal.
Further to Q3, I currently get both Friday practice live, one of the
Saturday practice tape delayed, both qualifying sessions live and the
race live. Do you get at least the races live on TV and if so, is there
any channels that transmit the Grand Prix without adverts?
MfG
Geoff.

FORMULE 1 Geen probleem nie. op 2 kanale.
No German cahnnels, besides if you are willing to pay (a lot)
Some European Sportchannel but I am not sure.
