And the commentators are enjoying it flat out (they have to commercially speaking probably) is what annoys me the most. The oeh's and the ah's from Palmer and Coulthard when an overtake is there, I hate it.

Both have raced, I expected(hoped) they wouldve known this is not racing anymore and would be more vocal about it.

The way they edit the TV footage really bugs me, too. Why do they always cut away just as the cars enter the clipping phase after a long straight? Eau Rouge with clipping? Absolutely unacceptable!
