    I was on my phone and saw that the last live session lasted 6 minutes. Each ad break is about 5 minutes long.
    We're missing all the bits round Barnsley.

    It is mate. There's been 3 ad breaks in less than no time. Every 5 minutes an ad break since they've been in the Barnsley area. There wasn't so many when they were in Sheffield.

    ITV 4. Went through a time of ad breaks every 5 minutes while passing through Cudworth, Royston, Darton, Mapp. From half past 2 to race ending no ad breaks

    I missed that part of the programme .
    It is an event that should be ad free .

    It's on ITV4, a commercial channel, so that isn't going to happen. Have you ever watched Sky?

    I agree the breaks are less smooth, but it's good it's being televised.
