When it comes to sports coverage, Americans are screwed the most. Of course, it's not just IndyCar or F1, it's in every sport. You get 5 minutes of coverage for every three minutes of commercials. No wonder the American football or basketball are so popular in America. These are the spots where for every 30 seconds of action you get a 1-2 minute break (where commercials can be inserted). But this formula doesn't work with other sports, like F1 or football (the real football, not the American one). I really wish the Federal agencies in the USA, such as FCC or FTC looked into this issue and basically forbade commercials on ALL pay-for-subscription channels. But this can never happen because the federal agencies like FCC, FTC, and FDA mostly work for the goals of the big business, the guys that do most of the lobbying and hefty financial contributions to both of the parties.
