RE: ESPN= NO F1 RACES

Speedvision rules -- not only does it have a fantastic content archive, it's
also GREAT for entertaining 5yr olds!

They had live qualifying on last night (at least they said it was live, I
haven't bothered to figure out the time shift to check them on it. isn't it
around 12 hrs?), and said they would be exclusively broadcasting the race at
9:30pm Saturday.
