At this point, who needs AC when you got that kind of wind.
 
Will they cut the broadcast anyways for something like NASCAR practice anyways though?
 
The WEC is obviously unaware of how few people have FS2 and or access to FoxSportsGo 👎
 
YES! I CAN ACTUALLY WATCH THE WEC NOW!!! :D

Before anyone says anything...I have internet which is...well...I live in Vermont. :lol: Usually streams aren't that effective and are usually more pixelulated than a criminals face.
 
WEC will be shown on TV live in the US and Canada. http://www.fiawec.com/en/news/wec-goes-live-across-north-america-in-2015_2981.html

Yeah, but it's been that way every year and I don't think it'll change anytime soon. At least it's only for the 24 hour race, although that's probably worse. I'm thinking selfishly since there's a second location I can go to that has FS2 already. :D Still sucks though.

FS2 is in 45.3 million homes, more people have FS2 than Showtime,Starz or HBO. If FS1 is with your cable/dish package you should still be able to watch the Go app online. The WEC should also still be available to subscribe to or maybe a "alternative" source will appear minutes before the race.;)
 
Well I have Fox Sports 1 with my provider so I'm likely good to go.

I'm just glad I no longer have to resort to...alternative means on the day of the race.
 
Fox Sports... Bleh. We'll probably miss about half the race to football or UFC. Their handling of motorsports is very sub-par.

But Comcast only has FS2 in a few markets so the vast majority of us are out of luck. From my experience if you don't have FS2 on your tv package then you can't watch it on FS Go. The only exception was for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Daytona last year.

That's the way it was here last year, no FS2, no FS Go. I do notice they have an Xfinity logo at the FS Go site and say I can log in with a Comcast ID, so maybe they have made some changes. I guess we will have to wait and see what "select events" we are allowed access to.
 
Unfortunately, I kinda saw this coming because:

The use of models, also referred to as 'race queens' or 'umbrella girls', to stand by cars with flags or placards displaying drivers' numbers has long been a feature of Formula One.

It has also been a bone of contention for those seeking more equality and less sexism in a male-dominated sport, although in some series where women racers have joined the grid the 'umbrella' role has been taken by a man.
 
Id rather see grid girls abolished then be exposed to grid men in mankinis, Borat was enough exposure of that,
 
Good. No one needs grid girls, this is a fantastic step forward!

Talk for yourself! :p I really enjoyed the girls last year at Spa :) When I did the pit walk they were all lined up against the pit wall, if you would ask for a photo they respond nice and if you are a little bit of a man, you'd ask how they were doing etc. Didn't seem like they were complaining. And it also didn't seem like they were held at gunpoint to do that job. Actually, I'm pretty confident they were having fun.

Probably most people complaining are fat, ugly and afraid of hot chicks ;);););););););););)

Would that include other women by any chance?

Maybe jealous women?

Jealous women don't protest, they just degrade themselves further.

I'm talking about the kind of women that find things like Grid Girls Sexist.

I hate to say it but it kinda is... sexist.. I wouldn't be talking to Grid Boys... But there are women in motorsport that have a grid boy.. So it's not that stereotypical.

But I'm really not the prude type and so isn't my gf. I know for a fact she would melt when seeing a grid full with grid guys. Actually for grid girls too. She sometimes make me look at other women behinds. She almost likes them more than I do.
