cartpix should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
ESPN2 Spoils Germany

I was watching RPM 2Day, this morning, before I was going to switch to the German 500. Without warning, they flashed the winner over the ticker. Way to go ESPN! They don't even cover CART. Is this some way to get back at CART, by pi##ing off the fans?

ESPN does not broadcast Cart, they have nothing to do with Cart, so they have no obligation to give or not give the results.

Look, your an idiot if you watched RPM2Day not expecting to see results from a race run on the other side of the world...

ESPN is a SPORTS NETWORK. The technically have no obligations to anyone or any sport except to show a variety of sports for a variety of fans.

This is not the first time they have showed the results of a race yet to be shown, typically they do give a warning, but bottom line is unless the race is live,

DONT WATCH A RACING NEWS SHOW BEFORE THE TV START TIME!
I too learned this the hard way in the past, but They didnt get me today... I watched the history channey until the race start and TIVO'd RPM2Day...

As far as brands hatch, i listened live on the internet. I just didnt wanna wait!
