I completely blew off a fine fall day to watch the entire coverage.
These guys just keep getting better and better each race, IMHO.  Great
sound, great in-car shots, great interviews.  We sure are lucky to
have them.

I've been impatiently waiting since last Sunday for their F1 coverage
(although the feed ABC was given made up for their less than
satisfactory commentary).

Just to add - It's not on Speedvision, but make sure to catch the Indy Lights race from Road Atlanta when it's broadcast on ESPN2
next weekend (check your local listings for time).  A small field, but a tight battle for 2-4 for most of the race and a last lap,
last turn gonzo pass down the hill for the win on a semi-wet track.  Good stuff.  And try to find the Star Mazda race as well; a big
field of open wheelers sliding through the corners, lots of enthusiasm, and not much discretion.  Looked a lot like VROC!

Steve, I have found that some of the best racing these days is in the
driver development series. I have access, on my cable tv system here in the
USA, to Indy Lights, Toyota Atlantic, and Barber Dodge. I watch them
religiously, and just wish I could get the Euro series, such as F3, F3000,
and FFord.

No kidding Chris; I'd love to get the F3 & 3000's on the tube here.  BTW, a reminder to all - ESPN2 is showing 2 hrs of Indy Lights
late tonight, from 2:30am to 4:30am.  I think they're doing Laguna Seca and Road Atlanta, an hour each.  Set yer vcr's...
