    They still cover F1 on Speed (channel 67). The problem is they air live, which means most races are on at 6 or 7:00 in the morning. They carry Friday practices, Saturday quilifying, and the entire race with a half hour pre-race show. I think four races this year are on CBS. The race two weekends ago at Imola (San Marino GP) was on CBS at 1:00. Set up the DVR...

    yeah, if I had one. No fucking way i'm getting up at 6 on a weekend.

    Is Ferrari still dominating? I haven't been following it lately. I know there have been major driver changes.

    No, believe it or not, Renault is now dominant. They've won three of four races this year, with Ferrari getting the last one. Last year, Renault and Fernando Alonso won the driver's and constructor's championship. ferrari only had the one controversy marred win at Indy last year. Ferrari believes they're back on track, but the gap between Bridgestone and Goodyear may be too much to overcome.
