Nice job on F1 qualifying this evening. Q2, commercials and then they show the top 5 getting out of their cars. And by the way, is the Indycar Grand Prix of Houston tomorrow at 3 like the on screen graphic says? NBCSports, you suck.

Blows is an understatement. How could they skip Q2 and Q3 for the US audience of the US Grand Prix? What were they thinking? Curling? OMG!

I`m not sure the race is being broadcast live tomorrow either. I just hope they show the whole race. They are only showing a half hour of the 1 hr prerace program. WTF? At least they have 6 hrs of olympic trials. Yawn.

The full qualifying was on here live on CNBC.

Yea, curling. Who's the braintrust in charge of programming there?

Idiotic.

Flying Finn

That was beyond bad!

OK, quali had already been shown before live so you can understand cutting the re-air short but to show Q1 fully, the little of Q2 and then just after they've finished, PLUS all kind of commentary really is unbelievable.
Why not show last 5 mins of Q1, then last 5 of Q2 and Q3 then fully?! How can they have absolutely no clue?
Well, Olympics are soon so they can show again how to make something exiting very boring by being so bad at broadcasting.

C'mon guys it is nbc. They have not had competent management in over a decade.

MSR Racer

Check local nbc channel. Race is live on that local channel at 1 pm ET.

Curling!? Have to be kidding.

Yea the audience for Curling is so much more than racing! Let alone starting 30 minutes late, but it was worse that they break in Q2 and them come back, well he done it again...

Makes me feel that much more fortunate to be in the Red Bull suite tied into the team radio transmissions. Hope they do a good job for all of the faithful followers tomorrow.

Not only were they 30 minutes late in the re-broadcast, when I started watching it at the scheduled time and saw curling instead, they were helpful enough to immediately scroll who got pole at the bottom of the screen. Thanks NBCSports!

A little convoluted but CNBC showed the whole qualifying.

I had recorded qualifying to watch it this morning at breakfast. i thought my recording system had goofed up until I saw these postings. These NBC producers are beyond belief. I want my Speed Vision.
