It's actually not a step backwards... it's NEVER been this BAD!
What a crappy coverage:
- if you show on-board, please on the roof of the car where you can see some scenery. I think the cars will get a lot of livery inside, because...
- ...where are the cameras next to the road? Almost nothing, you can't compare passages of two cars on the same spot anymore :( If you do live coverage, you can understand why they use a lot of on-boards.
This is getting poorer and poorer :(
Hope they improve a lot, but what is there to improve if they are only four good cars in a rally?
Why don't they show any other championship, to bring some variation in 45mins!
I think it should just be cleared up. This is actually not North One's fault in a sense. I believe there will have actually been the same amount or possibly more good exterior footage from day one that their TV people shot. It was just not used.
This was a case of Motors being so ass-backwards that they figured people wanted to see a bunch of monotonous poor-quality onboard instead of any real action. They suceeded in making the coverage totally boring. It was like they were briefed to try and convey the WRC without actually showing any cars. It was almost like they were taking the piss out of us fans.
North One should step in. I doubt they will. I doubt anyone from there reads the forum - which is they had any shred of sense they would.
Does anyone have any contact details for Motors? I wouldn't mind firing off an email headed WTF!!!!!!!!!!! Frederic Viguer should hang his head in shame.
MotorsTV has a forum :)
Joining and complaining!

Come on guys, write some more of your 'positive' thoughts...!
I wonder if they read their own forum? They can't have received any positive feedback from that pathetic effort.
They have as people have written here.
I was not too impressed yesterday, but I will watch tonight as well and do my notes.
Made a thread for this on their forum, so lets hope they are open for well meant suggestions !

I've only seen bits, but the in car cameras are a waste if you can only see a small bit outside of the windscreen, and as for looking back at the driver. Why?? It just doesn't do any good for the sport, just give the impression of 'amateur hour'. Honestly, look at the old BBC coverage from 10 years ago, it waa far better.
Gotta love some comments!
