Well, that was the worst coverage of any sporting event |
|
I have ever seen in 55 years.
the Indy 500 was continuous commercials and stupidity. The side-by-side format was moranic...no recap, dumbass commentary. Wehre's JAckie Stewart when you need him?
The ads were all the same...no variation.
The WORST!

6. Scott Dixon (Target car). Coverage was fine in HD. |
|
I thought the coverage was fine. The side by side was instead on totally leaving the race for commercials. Danica Patrick was bumped in the pits by another car and knocked out of the race. She's good.

8. That's another tough break for Patrick. |
|
Was she moving when she got bumped?

9. She was in a long line of cars leaving the pits and the guy tried to barge in. |
|
She almost avoided him but she couldn't go any farther to the right. Seems there should be another lane in the pits, one for cars up to speed and one for cars just starting out.

2. (shrug) There's only so much that can be done when people are driving in circles.... |
|
I did like hearing the live radio between driver and crew though.

7. Guess i am glad that I lived in a blocked out media area |
|
they don't show it here until after the race is over .... always listen to it on the radio - pretty good coverage.
Boring race for the first 2/3 of the race. Can't recall so much of the time racing under caution.
