Mark my words Tokoro will win the Grand Prx. On another note HDNet really dropped the fucking ball by not having this on live. Why have a week delay?

I agree 100% with everything you said except that probably 90% of the people who would have watched it live will watch the delayed version but yeah fucking stupid move not to air it live.
