Thanks I’ve returned my freeview box but it isn’t available here. Are there any streams available in the uk?

Might watch it on the 'Tube' as the Freeview picture quality is poor ( bit like ITV4 )

Picture quality on Freesat (ch 252) isn't that bad for an American TV programme!

Thanks for that. Picture is ok and sound is a little out but I don’t care if I get to watch the race!!

Why were they under caution? Came back after adverts, no commentary and the safety car out but no explanation.

Enjoying the echoing commentary team

Thats what NASCAR do, random cautions to 'spice' up the race!

It's motor racing but not as you know it!

Seeing as this is the first time I've watched, I'm glad I asked but pretty damn suprised. Unsure if I want to watch any more. Same as NFL though, set up to work for the advertisers.

I'll tune back in in 100 laps or so.

Engine issue for the 72 was the reason for the first caution, although fully expect those random debris cautions later on laugh

Oh dear!

Did they show what happened to Mr Potato Head? Fox when side by side and then free sports cut to adverts just as the 18 was on the grass. My computer crashed as I tried to find a stream.

Freeview Ch 95, seems to be better than last year, quality is ok for a SD channel.

thanks

A 200 mph traffic jam - door to door bumper to bumper at that speed is quite something!
