The terrestrial perspective, once again:
With Five US' Monday evening showing sidelined because they're showing some freakishly tall people throwing balls in fishing nets on a pole (seems pointless as the nets have a big hole in the bottom; perhaps it's just me) I was stuck with the overnight Five showing instead. Not a lot different but you do get Diana Binks waffling on instead of the kick-ass, I mean kick-arse, theme tune. Now Diana knows her stuff, as her F3/GT experience shows, but she gets handed some right tosh to say at this time of night. Mispronouncing Pocono is one thing (I also got it wrong for years) but last year's race was apparently won by Kyle Busch Jr... That'll be Kurt then, who of course is the older of the brothers...https://wordpress.com/stats/insights/stugrovesf1.wordpress.com

I was just wondering how long NASN has been showing the Nationwide races live for this year? As far as I know they weren't doing at the start of the season. I finally crumbled and subscribed to Setanta because their football package is so strong for this season, but live NNS is the icing on the cake. Do they tend to show the pre-race stuff?

Anyway, nothing live.

Also theres the cost issue.Lets face it theres bugger all worth watching on the sky entertainment packages,if it wasnt for sprint cup i wouldnt have any sky subscription.So its costing me £34 per month instead of £13 per month.
The plus side of sky is when it rains my skybox doesnt freeze as often on sky sports as it does on NASN.
