NASCAR has way too many drivers for that. And also in NASCAR, drivers' numbers are well established and you know almost instantly that 66 is Jeff Green... Try do that with F1... I for one have no idea who drives the #17 in F1. :confused:Quote:

NASCAR is cool, although it really gives too many information sometimes, we have photo of the driver, race stats, season stats, career stats, breakfast stats...
If you get an hour or two, feel free to explain that screen name.Quote:

I don't need a steady crawl if the commentators are worth a damn, but it would be nice if we are stuck with the crawl, that they make it more horizontal.
Also, I would love for a much tidier in appearence package and dump the ad graphics that never seem to stop. F1 does a good job on their visuals, but I do know their control over the broadcast is WAY too intrusive at certain times. Of course, it reflects the mindset of the little troll that controls f1.....
I think that the FOX NASCAR broadcast is the best by far. It is tidy, and informative. Plus the bonus features are great, like FOXTrax
I hope that's sarcasm. FOXTrax is the dumbest idea since the original iteration of FOXTrax (that puck shadow used in hockey games). I don't need an arrow to tell me which dot on the track is a car if you would just zoom the camera in a little, but God forbid the sponsors be in focus.Quote:

Once you watch a few F1 races, you understand everything on the screen, at least I understood it.
Fox is really lame too. They cater to the 8-16 year olds w/their stupid sound effects, etc...
