New Orleans Fox channel decides to cut off the F1 broadcast right after Button passes Schumi with less than 15 laps left! We keep the broadcast on during the entire two hour rain delay and they can't wait to switch to the St. Jude's telecast 15 more minutes till the end of the race! AAAARRRGHHH!

AAAARRRGHHH! 4master Yeah well, it aint gonna make you feel any better to know that you missed the last 15 laps of one of the best endings of an F1 race in 20 years. I quit a couple of years ago but up until around 2009, I had a recording of EVERY F1 race since 1991. I probably have 200 of them on VHS. That move through the last chicane that Massa put on Kobiashi on the last lap to nip him for 6th by .050 at the line took attachments worthy of a wheelbarrow to transport...  Schumacher's move past Massa and Kobiashi in one swoop wasn't far behind either. Rare mistake from Vettel but he has a ton of points to lose. In his defense, maybe he got tired of having his 10 second gaps erased by safety car after safety car and didn't push hard enough after the last green flag. Don't know about any other F1 fans here but that DRS should be renamed BS. Our Fox cut away before podium and press conference but SPEED picked that up so we just switched channels. T |

Yea, my dad and I were pissed. Had to get the results online. I did get to see the last two laps and the press conference this morning b/c I was watching the Continental Tire series which I dvr'd and Speed broke in during that telecast to show the end and final two laps, but it still sucked waiting through that entire rain delay only to miss the best part of the show.
