Through the 80s Top Gear rally report was brilliant on the BBC, half hour a night, maybe an hour, somehow much more entertaining than todays crap.
Also you often had a top gear rally live stage. Normally one of the spectator friendly stages such as Blenhem Palace. Much beeter than the spectator friendly stuff now. Used to be shown on a sunday afternoon on the BBC, sometimes during Grandstand. I mean if it could be done then, surly with technology now, it has to be easier

Thats quite a good point. You only have to go back to the early 2000's to notice the difference in the daily highlights programmes or event highlights as well.

Today there is so much stuff going in in those programmes which don't really tell anything about what happened during the event. Needless slow-mo footage, bad commentary, etc.

Ca. 15 years ago the programme told what happened and it was enjoyable to watch. Sometimes I tried to watch event highlights this year but it's always a disappointment.
