For the serious F1 follower, the Univision TV coverage is a must. SO much happens while NBC is away on commercial. The Univision coverage has radio transmissions even if you do not understand the language. From Kimi vs. Bottas in Mexico last year, to Lewis asking about Nico's tires at the last race, you can catch it all with Univision on your "last channel" remote button.

btw was I the only one that knew the track limits applied only in Copse/Stowe/Club or is the booth a clown car?

TSN coverage is amazing this year. 1.5 hours of pre race, 1 hour of post race, pretty much the entire sky coverage every single race. 

Agreed it is very  good. Still only 1 of 5 TSN channels is shown at a time on basic cable, the others require an extended package.Thus practice today was preempted by Wimbledon on the basic cable. Not to worry the race itself will be on basic tomorrow, along with the extended Sky coverage. Also practice was carried on sister network French RDS. Last year some races like the British GP were preempted, for golf or tennis, but this year so far all have been available on basic cable. No complaints really, especially reading of US coverage.

Which booth? The NBC crew passed that on to us.

After ranting about it and showing replays for 5 minutes. I knew the corners in question before the session started.
