Give 'em some time to chill a bit. I know it has to do with 'keeping up with the tv schedules' but we, the viewers, don't care that much for the delay. I love seeing the Massa-Alonso 'arguments' or Lewis and Nico being happy to share a first F1 podium (OZ 2008 ??). I know it'll sound silly, but I'm quite glad my local broadcast finally understood (since 2008) to not cut to a commercial as soon as the race ends, rejoining at the national anthems. I think it does bring the fans closer to the drivers in that we actually see them having sheer emotions. (On the pre-race grid, they're pretty much into robot-mode and it's totally understandable) Were I a Narcsac fan, I'd really enjoy those pre-race shows (a bit too long sometimes) as they do give you insights about the drivers, the teams, the series' history. Meanwhile in pre-race shows: lie-gate, crash-gate, DDD, spank-gate, court appeals, elections, FOTA/FOM....... I used to be a big fan of politics in general, but I think I get it all in F1 nowadays. Anyway, good piece Laura. I think a good starting point to start enjoying Nascar a bit is to pick a driver (I picked JPM of course) and just follow his progression in that rolling bar on top of your tele screen. You actually can enjoy a few races from time to time.(true story) Cheers. Well, I’m not sure about the donut thing, but for fcuk sake, let them celebrate and breathe a little bit more.
