// Formula 1 Leaves SPEED

Following a 17 year partnership with Formula 1 as their exclusive US broadcaster, Fox Sport's SPEED network will be replaced by the NBC network beginning in 2013. The SPEED network and their on-air personalities, Bob Varsha, David Hobbs, Steve Matchett and Will Buxton, have been the face of Formula 1 in America, doing their part to connect US fans with the sport since the network started showing F1 in 1996.
