If you want to talk to your friends, these motors are very good for that. When I was here for the V8, there was absolute no way you will talk to anyone. Not even screaming in their ears.

Same here. If I was able to make changes, I would be top 10 right now.

What a race. I hope Hamilton doesn't get dicked by the double points because even if he wins in Brazil and Britney DNF, Britney can still win the championship if he wins and Hamilton DNF at Abu Dhabi.

The article was comparing broadcasts on NBCSN. There weren't that many races on NBC and CNBC, CNBC showed the practice and qualifying that conflict with the Sochi Olympics and Tour de France.

They had the same races on NBC and CNBC last year.

I hope that's true. They can't make anything worse than what they currently have.
