F1 from magny-commercials, (fox sux)

I really like the new F1 format where they only show every third lap. really keeps me on the edge of my seat wondering what I'm missing.

It makes it hard for the commentators tho, every 30 seconds they have to explain to the viewers what happened during one of over 1000 commercial breaks.

Fox sux, commercials suck.

I, too, was on the edge of my seal during the commercials. The seal was not pleased.

I agree, but I really love my DVR. I've gotten in the habit of recording everything and watching the show about 1 hour late. Then I can zip thru the commericials. I really really really hate that jerk off that sells that Oxi-crap washing stuff.

I've actually thought of sending email to the networks telling them how much I love my DVR and how they can take the commericals and stuff them.

I'm just happy to have the last few races in wide screen. I've wondered why they kept focusing on one car so you couldn't tell the gap before and after. Turns out they wern't, they just had the leading and trailing car at the edge of the wide screen.

And who still thinks there's no passing in F1. This has to be the most passes I've seen in my 25+ years as an F1 fan (of course my memory sucks, so I've forgetten most of the races I've seen .)
