I recorded the last 40mins of the race on FS1HD so I could watch it when I got up. THEY PLAYED SOME STUPID GOLF THING INSTEAD OF THE BIGGEST MOTORSPORT EVENT OF THE YEAR WHEN THE GUIDE SAID IT WAS THE RACE!!!! So, I didn’t get too see the end of the race, and I’m kinda pissed about it. Have a Porsche I detailed last weekend for your time...

Next year just buy the official WEC stream for $10. No commercial breaks, RLM commentary (which means no Bob Varsha), and no bullshit hopping from channel to channel.

Yeah, the last 40 minutes were just a glorified parade with hugs in the pits.
But seriously, call Fox out on their crap. Publicly. They changed their schedule in the middle of the race, which screws over everyone who set their DVR to watch it later. It’s sad that they just don’t care.

I don’t think you were watching the same race. Shit went down in the last 30 mins.

I was trying to make the guy not feel so bad for missing such an epic ending to a race. But now he knows. It’s all your fault. I hope you can live with the guilt for the rest of your life. This is the worst thing that anyone could ever do. Except for DQ’ing the #5 Toyota because their broken car took too long to do it’s final lap after stalling on the start-finish line and getting passed for the lead while sitting there. That’s the only thing worse than tell him he missed the amazing end of the race.

He had to see the oppo front page when he posted this so he knows. The Toyota was excluded because they did not comply to an explicit rule. 10.15(e) dictates that they have to complete their final lap in under 6 minutes.

Honestly, I don’t blame them much at all, given the fact that most of it was either weather related (US Open) or scheduling fails out of the broadcaster’s control (NCWTS and NXS qualifying).
The only real issue I had was that they didn’t utilize a channel like Fox Business Channel for anything else but showing truck qualifying when Fox, FS1, and FS2 couldn’t at the time.
If the US Open was next weekend instead of this weekend, none of this would have happened. Overall, I’d say 90% NOT Fox’s fault (for once).
