back in the day before the interwebs were good, i was forced to watch on speed.
I enjoyed the coverage somewhat as i thought the crew were very entertaining.
I liked the fact that they at least showed FP2 and qualy.
But as soon as fox bought speed, the commercials during the races were too long and too often we would come back from a commercial and something important had happened.
I remember when ABC introduced side by side and always wondered why Speed never went that route.
Then the channel decided to go all nascar all the time and moved some of the best races to fox which never bothered with pre-race build up and couldn't even bother to show post race stuff either.

then there was NBC sports that promised more coverage and better viewing. And failed on all fronts.
I watch all my races online, either with sky sports or viasat( and my app commentary)
I've given up on the american broadcast.
