did anyone else see this on NBCSN in the US or canada?
what a steaming pile of crap that was. basically a half-hour red bull infomercial.

I saw it, I enjoyed it. I am a Vettel fan - so one would expect that of course, but I disagree that it was a steaming pile of crap on other grounds.
It was definitely the kind of thing that we are used to in the USA when it comes to sports that are not among the big four. With NASCAR (outside of the South) they present us with Multi-champion, Jimmy Johnson, a bit of his story in his words because that is what intrigues. Same for F1, a bit of the youngest ever triple champion, Vettel's story in his words as that is what will intriuge the casual fans.

I thought it was done very well. Unlike the series of the same name they run for the IndyCar's, I doubt the people within F1 will allow cameras to follow a driver around like they do on a race weekend.
And of course there is going to be an excessive amount of Red Bull logos. That is what Red Bull does. Give their people so much clothing with the logo that they have little choice when picking out clothes for the day that doesn't have the logo. And make damn sure than when their people are in front of camera's there is at least as many Red Bull logos as you can fit on screen.

I tried to watch it, but Vettel disgusts me, so I had to turn it off.

I guess if it was about your favourite driver that you would like it better?
