Couldn't watch the Azerbaijan F1 race live this morning, so I made sure I was home to watch the re-broadcast at 4:30pm..........but nooooooo. What is ESPN2 showing? Lacrosse.
Guess I'll just read the results online.

Unless it's NASCAR it seems stations in the USA just don't know how to manage or promote it.

I was surprised to see Indy racing on NBC today.

EDIT - I do notice it's on ESPN2 right now! Of course not live but not sure why it's not playing for you.

It eventually came on about an hour late.......after they were done covering all the lacrosse replay highlights and player interviews.

If you're willing to pay for it, a subscription to F1TV is great. No more relying on the whims of a TV broadcaster. Plus, in my opinion, a better commentary crew than on the SKY TV feed that gets re-broadcast by others. Not to mention, a ton of additional content if you care to watch it.

How do I get F1 TV?

I need this. I am so over Crofty and Brundle. I would like to listen to someone that isn't so far up Brit drivers arses that they can taste if they had beans on toast or Cornish pasties for their last meal!!!

Just google F1TV and follow the instructions to subscribe. Given there's only 2 races left this season, you may want to wait until next year to to so.

Yeah, I'll grin and bear it for the last two races..... at least I won't have to hear the incessant hoping for a Max defeat in the WDC now, that'll make it a bit more bearable.

ESPN2, Sky News, Crufty and Broom Handle cured me of F1.

NLS (Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie) is about the only racing that interests me sufficiently to seek it out from time to time.
