    - The highlights are pretty ordinary. At the end of the highlights I don't have any sense of why driver X has moved from 3rd to 4th or whatever. There is no insight to it, nobody on this show is going to become a respected sports journalist. They miss a lot of actual highlights that I can see for free on social media, uploaded by spectators. And again there is a lot of repeat footage. It's not terrible, it would be OK on free TV for the general public, but for paying subscribers (i.e. enthusiasts) I would like more careful and intelligent coverage.

    - The basic video quality is inadequate. It's OK resolution, but not enough bitrate for high motion. Many fan uploads to youtube are quite a lot better.

    - I think the best part is the onboard footage. Well, except when the sound disappears. I might pay 10 euros a year for this, but not fifty.

    Still, maybe Sweden will change my mind.
    Dont forget, that you must unsubscribe if you dont want to pay next month...

    Even Ogier has a GOPRO in the middle of the seats now so no excuses to have it where it is now really

    somebody must sent them a mail with a link to this conversation here.
    Doubt if it helps though.
    Personally i dont bother.
    For most of rallies, i find everything on social media.Faster, more,and better.
    To watch an incar where the position of camera doesnt help to understand if the driver has the right line,or how close he is to the edge of road,doesnt help my needs for watching it.
    But thats only me.
    About rally radio,i want more informations that i dont know,and not something i already know,and not bla-bla about everything.

    Everybody at this wrc circus is amateur.
    I am pretty sure that some guys from here can provide much better info,before and during the rally.

    I signed up at Rally Australia to follow Paddon. And to be honest I am totally disappointed with it. I'm going to cancel my subscription. I dont really see what extra value I get for the money. Highlight vids which arent that great, some onboard of crap quality, and live stages which arent that great either. I can follow the times live, and live text for free which is the main thing to follow during a rally. I just dont see the value in it...

    Did you just say that the last two livestages also have the pre season interviews which was already featured in the pre season review & the celeb event..?

    Shame on you, WRC..

    This is the kind of image quality the WRC should aim for, not that useless stone age stuff they even have the nerve to ask money for.

    and of course to offer better camera angles.

    I'll will be dropping an email to the team at WRC TV with most of your words regarding feedback. If you'd like to add any more please do.

    Yes, tell them to answer the emails and to not steal money to people, even if they do it in an underhand legally way.

    BTW, I appreciate your gesture but really, it is crazy that they are not reading this thread (and other forums thread about WRC+) by themself.
    It is recognized as the most cheaper and easy way to understand users will. So if they have not done it before they will never follow our suggestions now.
