I get up and watch the thing at whatever hour .... and the qualifing the day before

If you watch the race live you can also watch the real time telemetry on the site linked below the article

Well, if I'm not up to watch it, I _always_ tape the live broadcast - there have been noticeable differences in the replayed broadcasts (go ahead: count the commercials). Luckily, I'd just finished watching the tape (after coming back from Church), so it didn't affect me this time; but on occasion it does.

Suggestion: so close to the end of the race (and considering, maybe, the desire to 'scoop' everyone else in making the posting?) it would be better to give it a neutral title and add "SPOILER" to warn people? I've seen that done with movies on this site and it seems to work well enough; judging from the lack of complaints about being 'tipped off' before they'd seen it...
