I don't know if I would consider Dorna trying to broaden viewership in the US by having some of their races on national network TV having their proverbial "thumb up their arse". More viewers = more money to support the series. In a more perfect world they would cross promote the series when its on network TV but that would only happen if the network races were shown on FOX. In other words advertise on SPEED that the upcoming race will be on network "A" and for network "A" to advertise watch the rest of the series on SPEED during their broadcast. Also it would be nice if SPEED could repeat the network broadcast or air the usual version of the race shown on SPEED. Do it on the following Tuesday for those who may have missed it.
Oh and I'm right there with you on the 125/250 races. Greatness !!!

They don't have the broadcast rights, NBC does since they paid to broadcast it. The only way speed would be able to show it is if they worked a deal out with NBC.
