Ferrari Mailing List: Re: F1 Monaco - Senna Movie

[Larry T (l02turner]

I ended us watching and taping both programs - I missed taping the 1st version completely when I stopped taping at lap 66 because there was another program I wanted to watch so I taped the last laps on the delayed version.  But  I was surprised when the taped delay was shown in the entirety which included the Red Flag period when the race was stopped for 20-30 minutes following an accident that required some time to repair the barriers. I suspect Speed (the Nascar version) would show the race but compress the time of the Red Flag on the taped delay version.

I used to do this very thing.  But, about a year or more back, Dish just started doing this automatically on every racing event I chose.  Doesn't happen on other timers, just my races.  I dig it!

Great racing day which will take tomorrow to finish.    Few thoughts which 
may help.

Programming - times/channels.  TIVOing requires adding 3 hours to the race 
to account for many delays, otherwise you miss the last 10 laps of the race 
as I did on NBC.  Fortunately I also recorded the later NBCsports 
rebroadcast race Ch220 with 3hr add--on for delays.  It turns out the same 
precaution should have been applied to the movie 'Senna' as a hockey game 
delayed the move on NBCsport 220 at 5pm-pdt as the movie's end, the last 7 
minutes was also chopped off.   If you are new to TVR, adding 30 minutes to 
3 hours is cheap insurance to delays as this happens several times a year.

Both TIVO and DirectTV DTVR have the 'add 1 1/2 hr feature to use on series 
and singular programs.   And it was needed for the Senna movie as it's 
normal start was delayed by a hockey game.

IF YOU MISSED IT:
Monaco F1 will be shown again on NBCSpeed 220 today Monday May 27 
8:30p-11:00p pdst. While the event may be edited, ALLOW 4 hours for a 
complete show.
Senna movie is listed on DirectTV as CH1100 anytime for $3.99

'SENNA' - required viewing for F1 fans and only F1 fans will understand and 
enjoy it.  Masterfully edited with Portugese archive footage.
A must see, emotional insight of the man and the times.  Interesting to get 
glimpse into the drivers meetings, safety discussions, politics.
I assume this was Brazil TV archive coverage and I'm happy for the effort.

Took me a while to wake up to the McClaren's of red 'racing uniforms with 
Marlboro 2ft high near identical to my numerous Ferrari Jackets.

While I was died-in-th-wool Speedvision fan, NBCsports is now jake in my 
book. Even put the boys into suits and got them a room in Spain for a  daily 
commhute to Monaco.    If you find a desire to visit the Casino forget it. 
Super quiet staid, ties required, and expensive...no resemblance to an 
Indian Casino with buffet, bingo and happy outcrys by slot winners.

Great racing day
