International Commercials suck containment thread
Let the moderators hear your voice! Also for complaining about needless commentary features in leui of covering the race I actually tuned in for. (Geographic location may impact thread relevance)
Products I refuse to endorse as they detract from my viewing experience: - Weathertech - nascar - Imsa - Sebring 12 hr - nascar commentators - Peacock - Daughter's 5th birthday party - Hinchcliffe doing commentary and driving - Josef neugarden, indy 500 winner - Rolex |

Just had a 3 minute commercial/documentary about last years Indy500. Now Josef is in commentary booth. No mention of any cars currently on track on in pits

Today I learned alex palou films in vertical mode. This is information not required for my following of the race.
50" tv reduced to 28" pip to listen to someone else from a different discipline |

Been away from TV and only on radio for the last hour plus now.
But just wanted to make sure we didn't forget to complain about something, so I have a formal event to attend this evening and won't be able to listen for many hours. |

John has Michelin 4S on his cars, you might not know this as he hasn’t mentioned it much.
Did you also know that RLM doesn’t have any commercials either? |

Formal event just means he has to put pants on.

The pants are just a formality as shirts aren't required

TuneIn has found a way to squeeze in more ads. They're playing two at the same time for me.

My radio cut off because my phone decided to update. That's awesome. I think this counts?

I was fully clothed unfortunately, and very uncomfortable. Yet I was still able to get a bourbon to my mouth at too regular of intervals.That is correct, and I made it almost till the end before I was "over served"

I watched the WEC race on MAX commercial free. Then the IMSA race is mostly commercials, even when they are on the live coverage, the announcers are doing a segment about x y or z or interviews and not talking about the racing. It isn't the announcers fault, I think they have all these commercial requirements to adhere.

I wouldn’t watch if I had to put up with the adverts that Peacock has.

I have to wait between watching F1 in the morning and then an Indy or IMSA race, just too jarring with the need to fund the coverage. FOM fully pays and I know it's just a matter of time before they don't buy maybe we'll get then to learn like ESPN did with footie. I've taken to generally listening to IMSA later in the week in the car during the day instead of TV live
