The ad break frequency is absolutely ludicrous.

I don’t want to sound horrible but Howard is almost dangerously slow.

Well, it's not like there's actually anything happening on track. It's just waiting for either the next yellow or the finish. If we don't get a yellow close to the finish there will be no fight or victory.

I'm finding it very entertaining.

"May cause dehydration and death"

Man, I gotta get me some of that.

**bjohnsonsmith** · 27 May 2018, 18:19 (Ref:3825017)

Bourdais out at Turn 4.

This is one way to look at it and could be the case, but I'd much rather see nothing at 220 and change over the same ads over and over again.

Giants and Cubs
Ads for a race that's already happened
Aaron Judge on a treadmill
Some stupid Xbox game
Spelling Bee
Hotel Artimus
Oh and Stephan A Smith yells at people daily

Over and over and over. Only one applies to me and I've already seen it.

Don't forget Shaq spraying himself.

Is that the Xbox game? Or the new going bald ad?

I've no idea what the medical condition was because that only had a brief mention. All I know is that the side effects are way worse than the condition.

We just came back from ads just to announce we've missed the pit stops, so going back to the ads. Don't worry though, we've got more medical issues that desperately need to be solved by killing the patient.

EffectiveSprinkles · 27 May 2018, 18:30 (Ref:3825026)

Oh great. Everybody has realized you can't overtake so they're going crazy after the yellow.

fieldodreams79 · 27 May 2018, 18:30 (Ref:3825027)

Green!

For how long. Gonna get cra.

Not long....

**joeb** · 27 May 2018, 18:31 (Ref:3825029)

It must suck to just crash out and then hear the PA guy talking about your the track.

**bjohnsonsmith** · 27 May 2018, 18:32 (Ref:3825030)

Helio loses it on Turn 4.

fieldodreams79 · 27 May 2018, 18:33 (Ref:3825031)

Just got loose again......

Like when Danica was still in the car after her wreck and you can hear him say "it's over."

EffectiveSprinkles · 27 May 2018, 18:38 (Ref:3825032)

So when a driver decides he wants to race the car can't handle it. Good to know.

Almost like it's a new car and they're all still learning.

Nobody has told Rossi that it can't be raced.

Akrapovic · 27 May 2018, 18:41 (Ref:3825034)

Good old Sage. Gives him more time to play Fortnite.

**joeb** · 27 May 2018, 18:41 (Ref:3825035)

This race will never end

Armco Bender · 27 May 2018, 18:42 (Ref:3825036)

Not going to be any cars left soon if they keep crashing at this rate.

Oh come on.

When the DW12 came out we had a good 500. When the aerokits came out they got even better.

And now we have...this.

Mr. Rossi disagrees...

We had some bad ones with the DW12 as well. But don't worry about that, it's all awful isn't it. I personally prefer when cars are a challenge to drive rather than loaded up with downforce and easy flat all the way. Almost like the old days when the drivers had to race the car too.

On a more fun topic -

"Keytrude may cause your organs to attack themselves, leading to death. This is not all the side effects of KeyTrude."

I hope it tastes like blackberry. I need some of that.
