If ESPN follows the same format that it’s sister channel ABC did when it tried to cover Monaco during ‘Wide World of Sports’, it will be an unmitigated disaster. Announcers who don’t know a fucking thing about F1, and constantly cutting away from the race for stories about the driver’s lives and families.

I know some of you haven’t been thrilled with the in-studio trio of Diffey; Hobbs and Matchett, but these guys not only have true knowledge about what they speak, but are incredibly passionate about F1 as well.

I have a terrible ‘feeling’ about how this switch to ESPN is going to play out for us diehard F1 fans in the US. I can only hope my son can set me up with the Sky broadcast via streaming somehow.
