Amazing Malaysian GP... (spoilers within)

Interesting first lap, again, but I really do want to know how the hell Michael caught up and ended up in third...

Also, Malaysian TV has absolutely <b>no</b> idea of how to shoot a race...

True, the TV coverage sucked as did the announcers!

Could they have missed more things? I mean they are actually at the track! I knew immediately that the Toyota team put the old tire on McNish's car, it took them a 4 minute commercial break to figure that out? lol Too many errors on the announcers parts to even list. Just watched the race this morning, recorded it last night.

That's why I catch the race on TSN (The Sports Network) here ...

in Toronto. TSN carries the ITN coverage from the UK. I sometimes switch back to Speed Channel during commercial breaks, but these announcers suck big time! For those of you with a dish look for TSN.

Stan (TTlation) See y'all in Asheville.

I loved their, "something happened, we don't know what and we can't show you."

Yes, they actually are at each track.

You can even listen to the comments about how something is in their way and they can't see something.

I got the same impression as Navvy. I thought only Peter Windsor was actually there.

There was no video of the announcers, other than Peter was there?

I agree about the coverage. We were picking up stuff like the Toyota tire way before they were.
