I know die-hard fans will get up at 4am to watch F1 from Dubai or something... but ABC Sports at 1:30PM is a plus.. on EITHER coast.

On the West Coast the race started the same time the NCAA Memphis UCLA game did. Which is brilliant thinking on the executives. After seeing so-so camera quality at the start of the race I turned it over to the basketball game. I'm sure Mr. May would have done the same thing if Ohio St. played at the same time an alms race did? No scratch that he'd probably be at the Ohio St. game.
