It was bad, real bad. The Live timing didn't work 2/3 of the time, the cuts missed practically everything, and god the pit reporting was atrocious.
I'm not sure who the Japanese drifter guy was, nor why he was a pit reporter, but good lord. I'm not going to attack the guy personally, since I'm pretty sure English is not his first language, but why in god's name would you make him a pit reporter? Between barely any grasp of the language, and a mumbled-muted speaking tone where you could barely hear the guy, it blows my mind why he would be in front of a camera on an english-language american broadcast. It was almost uncomfortable watching the drivers squirm while they tried to understand just what he was asking.
It was kinda nice only seeing 3 minutes of commercials every hour, granted, when those 3 minutes were the same three commercials, that doesn't bode well for the series. Way to sell that sponsor value.
