Wow some harsh replies.
The reality is we in the US have really no Drivers with F1 experience ( Ok M. Andretti (both) S. Speed, Cheever, Sulivan)
So not much of a "pool" to pick from if they are to make a change.
My fear (and of others) is we will get generic NBC sports talking heads who just started to read up on the sport!
Varsha did great "color" along with Hobbs, was actually funny. Matchett is brilliant. I also miss Peter, but Buxton does a great job. Knows the sport inside and out. I have met him a bunch of times and is a great guy.
The Speed crew both on and off camera have done the hard work to build the F1 Fan base in the USA. They deserve to keep their jobs so we don't take three steps backward.
