A: The cars could literally emulate the actual voice of God and the Monaco Grand Prix would still be the most boring race on the calendar. As Matchett stated between telling us about how the tires are round, black and made of rubber: "The last 50 out of 60 Monaco Grand Prixs, the winner was started in the top three." Basically that's a nice way of saying.. "you've seen qualifying so no point in watching the race.. did you know the Indy 500 is on!?"

B: The problem with the announces being so audible is that they're NBC announcers. They're always over hyping, non-hype-able stuff, blowing everything way out of proportion and they're afraid to ever say anything intelligent.. because you know.. 'Murica.

Download the SkySports broadcast and having to "hear the announcers" will be revolutionary experience for you.
