Will U.S. Formula 1 Fans flock in Droves to the New
TV Coverage? Or Turn Away in Masses like this year's Daytona 500 experienced.

Meet the New Boss, same as the 'Ol Boss; We Won't
Get Fooled Again...
"My, Oh, My!" Uhm, guess the
Honeymoon's Over, eh? As what happened to Liberty Media's Broad Brush Strokes
regarding Caring about The Fans, Honest; chirp-Chirp; Bueller?
As the Grandiose, Capitalistic Face of
Formula 1, thou esteemed mustachioed "Chevy Chase;" Err Chase Carey
has dug in his Heels, by denoting how us Fans Must Change; Ja Volt!
We Have Ways of Making you Watch our TV Broadcasts!
As why is Chase's
demeanour making me think of that 'Ol, Wistful song Somewheres' Down the Crazy
River? I said Son, you're gonna learn to LUV' IT, by Gummit!
As sadly, when Liberty Media had the
opportunity to continue growing the sport of Formula 1 here in Americre', they
wasted a reported $12m on the USGP last year! For which All I heard differently
was "Let's Get Ready to Rumble!"
Yet instead Carey and his Cronies
"Brickety Bratches" went the CHEAP route with Thar watered down F1 TV
coverage for 2018. For which I DON'T see how this will grow the sport Stateside
in the least.
Or in the words of the great HobbsCapp', aka David
Hobbs: El Cheapo Suito!
And lastly, I suppose I should have been
careful of what I wished for, Eh? As I grew increasingly tired of NBC Sports
laconic treatment towards tossing Formula 1 airings willy-nilly, not to mention
those Sliced 'N diced, Nipped & Tucked brought to us by Ghinzu Knifes
replays!
but I cannot sum up how disappointed I am
with Liberty Media's new television partner's choice any more succinctly than
'Ol Statmann Caruthers' did in a recent Statmann Skatt! Where he rightly points
out Thars' Turbulence Ahead!
