Yea absolutely dumbass thing to do, waiting for the race I couldn't get to the remote before they had flashed the winner and significant race highlights right before race! WTF! Could you imagine them doing something like that for an NBA game?

Freaking Tools.

When I saw the update Assclown come on I change channels so there is no chance of spoiling the event.

Yup. Broadcast started late due to TDF I think. NBC decides it'd be really funny to pre-empt your DVR with final race results. Brilliant.

I'm constantly avoiding the F1 apps on my iphone from ruining the race.
