Suzuka 8 Hours live online

Eight hours in front of a computer may sound like a normal day at work, but on August 4 the Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race will be broadcast live on the internet.

It’s free to view, and will have complete live coverage from a number of cameras around the track, along with data such as lap times.

Broadband is probably recommended, but it will work with dial-up modems as well, although the number of features will be reduced.

If you want to see the race, which teams up top stars including Valentino Rossi and Colin Edwards, log onto www.8tailive.com.
