They claimed they wanted to learn from their Sweden mistake although the outdoor coverage has increased very slightly it seems they learned nothing.
A string of onboard shots does not equal rallying coverage. I'm sorry but they have made very little progress. By the time the season is out the coverage might be slightly bearable at this rate.
I don't get this..... the Motors TV coverage isn't the best but the ISC coverage is hardly miles better.
In my opinion - I'd rather watch something of Quality ie ISC's coverage 24mins, than an hour or 43mins of MotorsTV's coverage that I only watched 7 mins of of Sweden, unbearable and then read the not so positive feedback re coverage from Mexico....
I thought it was okay... Day 2 was mostly decent. I liked the onboard of Seb in Day 3, but the mistake of showing Ogier's Day2 footage in SS21 is inexcusable. Seriously, that's just total incompetence.
You can watch the Mexico Highlights with North One coverage and Paul King here:

MotorsTV Coverage yes? Might want to clarify this...Quote:

Even though the ISC/NorthOne coverage which is broadcast on ONE HD is miles better than MotorsTV, it's the same as last years... with some improvements!
They still do show the top 3 drivers, Loeb and Hirvonen of course but since the competition is heating up - and was very happy to see Oiger & Solberg fighting in there - it's became an interesting an exciting round to watch!
Coverage of the S-WRC is fantastic on each of the days..... but comparing it to the speed of the WRCars.... a bit slow on take offs and much easier for cameramen to track on turns.... haha (Watching IRC - and the S2000 cars there - they are quick... that's probably because we don't see WRCars racing in the same coverage too!)
Handy Cam's were OK but the HELMET CAM'S were the Best thing! Not only like being the driver but really good effect/perspective for the viewer! (But you can't see out the front window due to the lighting.... ughh)
Block coverage was well done and a good introduction for us all.... but the fact Paul King said "he's competing against the more experienced of Matt Wilson and Viagra" I think that was a silly choice of words because the more experienced is Solberg and Miko, J ML etc.....
They hardly showed any of Loeb or Mikko on the last day, rather concentrating on the Petter v Seb (Mk II) battle, which was the correct decision.Quote:

For the record I tried to watch Motors on Day 1, but turned it off because of the sound. I did however watch Day 2 on Motors and I was an improvement on Sweden, mainly due to them using the roof cam rather in car cam and covering more of the field.
