Thank you for taking the time for an explanation. I was looking at getting a proxy so I could view the BBC's excellent coverage of F1 some time ago but felt guilty and decided not to.
My problem is with what free channels here in the good old US of A think we want to watch sporting wise. Rather, what the majority of people here are interested in. Nascar has never been my cup of tea, and I don't enjoy watching the well dressed hit balls on grassy fields either. At least the B shows racing. I had been paying cable for as long as I could remember and realized that I was paying close to $1,300 a year.
Sorry for my ramble! It would be wonderful if CBS ( a local channel) aired more than two ALMS races. Don't even get me started on what FOX does to the few F1 races it airs.
