You can just remove the plugin: yum remove yum-fastestmirror

[root@host /]# yum remove yum-fastestmirror

That’s annoying.  I’ve filed a bug for that upstream:

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1347426
I found out some crazy things

my setup is private IPv4 behind a NAT-Router (192.168.1.0/24)
and as my ISP is still IPv4only I have a IPv6 tunnel (Hurricane Electric)
the other end of the tunnel is not in US, it is in Germany(!)

any access with port 80 or 443 is blocked except from proxy;
and I did the following on squid:

tcp_outgoing_address 192.168.1.10 linux-hosts

and now

after 'yum clean all', I get this when 'yum list kernel'

[root@host /]# yum list kernel
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Determining fastest mirrors
 * base: mirror.inode.at
 * extras: mirror.inode.at
 * updates: mirror.inode.at
...
and this is what I except ...

and the following settings in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf

exclude=.edu,.com,.org
include_only=\.at$,\.ch$,\.de$,\.nl$,\.uk$

are placebo, they don't work; because without the "hack setting" in squid,
which in fact disables IPv6 for the linux-hosts(!)
these two settings result in

Determining fastest mirrors
 * base: mirror.keystealth.org
 * epel: mirror.math.princeton.edu
 * extras: mirror.keystealth.org
 * updates: mirror.keystealth.org
