Forget about Fox allowing anything other than crap coming our way. SpeedHD and all the other muck is just another bad idea for people who do not drink wine out of a box and consider racing as something that should be respected rather than exploited. wow high definition crap, I can't wait. My TIVO even hates SPEED.

F1 is so much more interesting than the new SPEED has made it... I really feel sorry for the F1 announcers as they are being paid to regurgitate that rubbish and I am sure enjoy getting paid so they toe the line.

I look forward to the F1 plan of pay per view per event, all the boring stuff they broadcast in Europe. Bypass Fox and save the sport in the USA.

I have been here since the beginning and heavily involved in motorsport and I am exhausted watching Fox trying to find the next new demographic they can sell Viagra.

no way.. you just need TSN. Very Very little commercial breaks (three or four a race, TWO 6-7 minute long commercials during qualifying during the breaks after Q1 and Q2, no on track coverage is cut or missed) and a professional broadcast. Not anywhere as lame as the Speed coverage.

I guess boring equals professional, or does it mean being biased towards Mclaren as much as possible, whenever possible, however possible.lol..

There is more coverage now than there has ever been for F1 in North America. Speed shows the practice, qualifying, race and a recap of the last race. All all complain about NASCAR and all the coverage it gets. Well it's because NASCAR embraces the media unlike F1 that filters everything to make it as PC as possible.

Why does talk about the hottest driver turn you off?? There is always someone that is ontop or the class of the field and right now it's Hamilton. If he's not your driver than take it was some salt and move on.

Speed used to show rebroadcasts of the race at a later time same day. They haven't lately to air more NASCRAP which really isn't racing as far as I'm concerned. However Fox won't change anything as they are part of the "Wal-Mart" race to the bottom. THey have dumbed down everything they have touched. I'm suprised they haven't put DW in the Annonce booth along with Rusty Wallace

The last F1 race is the only one this year that did not get an afternoon re-broadcast.
This weekends GP of Turkey will be re-broadcast in the afternoon on SpeedTV.
