They are getting better for the international viewers, they did have a woman in the pits who'd go through the NASCAR field during the US breaks. I think I'd find live TV in the US really annoying to watch.
Pretty slam dunk unsafe release you'd think

Why do they light up the tyres when leaving the pits? Seems that it would take a bit of life out the tyres and some of these drivers are incompetent of driving in a straight line.
Tyre warmers are banned in Indycar and NASCAR, IMSA. Recent controversy in WEC Spa and upcoming LM24.unsprung said:

Cool. Likely to be a memorable trip.There's more than one Fifth Gear episode with Tiff Needell and NASCAR.
The technology now - the miniaturization of cameras, the availability of real-time data - is adding to the experience.
And, by the way, it's a "two-way street" in terms of the migration of sport. Don't laugh, but we're giving cricket a go:
