    I think some forget we are talking about the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP of the noblest of the motorsport, it's not like "if you don't like don't watch it". It's like I want the motorsport that I love to be comunicated in a proper way because it is a wanderful thing and deserves it.

    They had not a hard job:
    -cars has to be heard
    -quality of stream has to be decent (youtube amateurs guys have better quality)
    -Action and times has to be followed and commented by people who knows what they are talking about.

    3 simple tasks for the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP of the best motorsport in this planet.
    The fact it was dedicated for general public makes it even worse, because they did not lived the real emotions.

    End of rant.
    Here's my take on it!

    This is a local TV production from Argentina.

    Do they have experience with rally coverage?
    Well the amount of high level events that would be broadcast in Argentina is one per year... So no.

    Do they specialize in rally coverage like the WRC promoter team?
    I doubt that they have only one job per year... So no. They likely cover soccer or other sport events for most of the year.

    Do they have the budget?
    Soccer is massively more popular, rally, comparatively, not so much... So likely no.

    Did anyone anywhere promise the product of a lifetime?
    Well... No.

    We have been complaining for ages that the local feeds were not being used and that the potential was being wasted.

    Now they have done exactly what we asked them to do and what happens?... People complain about that too.

    I mean... Really?

    It is completely voluntary to watch. It is bonus content, so treat it as such. You don't have to watch it if you don't like.

    Rally fans are apparently the hardest people to please in the world if this forum is anything to go by.

    First stage this morning is a real whopper. First 3km flat out then real tricky uphill sections over the mountain. Was very muddy on recce.

    https://twitter.com/rallyargentina/s...71629920886787 The organizers are already worried about the spectator action on the shakedown. Let's see how many stages get cancelled :/

    Sh*t coverage for a sh*t stage. Not an official WRC product of sorts. They didn't have to add it to the WRC+ service (not all local feeds are) but it's there if you want it.

    Not worth losing sleep over - which I clearly didn't as I nodded off midway through the WRC field!

    Just your average SSS I thought. There will be coverage of proper stages so no big deal.

    Worth pointing out for the organizers is that small bags of sand will not prevent the drivers from cutting the corner.

    the start of stage is delayed...

    why WRC bothers with usuless rallies like mexico and argentina ? they have far bigger problems to deal with than a WRC round....
