    Broadcast Team

    Please, not Derek Daley--after his performance during Champ Car broadcasts, he doesn't deserve more time at the microphone. Jon Beekhuis is a must---he explains what's happened better and more concisely than anyone.

    Bring back Rick Benjamin---he had a great voice and knew how to call a race with skill and enthusiasm.

    NBC Sports: I like Jon Beekhuis and Wally Dallenbach but I think Bob Jenkins is past his sell date. I'd rather see Bob Varsha as the play-by-play. The host and the pit crew is okay, and Miller was a great addition.

    ABC: I'm not particularly fond of Marty Reid or Scott Goodyear but I don't think they're terrible either. How about Paul Page, Eddie Cheever and Parker Johnstone? I'd like to see and hear more of Jamie Little too.

    P.S. the best scenario would be one where I don't have to listen to American commentators in the torrrent file because there was a TV broadcast in my country or at least IndyCar brought back the official stream. I can understand the lack of streaming in countries where there is a TV deal in place but as for the rest of the world, it's sheer idiocy.

    Does Indycar even have any broadcasts at all ? Oh wait- they are on channel 1256. Broadcasters ? We don't need no stinkin' broadcasters, heck at 0.3 ratings every viewer could be 'broadcaster of the week'.

    Congrats to Townsend, but I wish it had been Tommy Kendall.
