Wrc+

Pls give Mads a ring, we deserve it!
Some times it is painful to listen to them. So many hours they have done this job, and still most of the stage commentators, are clueless on what affects what on stages, drivingstyles and so on.

And on Ss16 they cut the bradcast after 7,5 cars, after Evans went off.
There was 30 min till next stage starts. Why stop there?
Even on Norwegian and Swedish championship events they are able to keep the end of stage interviews going on one stage until the next starts. Only voice, but that is fine!

Anyone else sick of Paul King.... he's nearly as annoying now as Jon Desborough.

Anybody is annoying when you spend the time we do listening/hearing them, it's same anywhere in life.

Perhaps an unpopular opinion but i didn’t like them. At least not the way it was done. Looked like some weird sequence from a computer game.

As a WRC+ subscriber I was looking for some onboard footage for preparing visiting Rally Croatia in April but they changed their archive, or where can I find this onboard footage on WRC+ now? In the past, it was a nice feature for looking and choosing nice spectator points.

I'm sure people have been saying this for the last 10-15 years - yet he still keeps his job. A 'relic' from the North One era, and he's not the only one.....

Click "WRC+" on the top menu and then "Onboards". I just watched Croatia stages last night.

I don't agree with that. There are commentators and analysts in other sports and topics who I could listen to (and indeed have done so, regularly) for ten hours a day with no problem at all, while some get on my nerves within seconds of hearing them start to speak. There's nobody in the first category for me in rallying, while plenty are in the second.

The only one that spot something wrong on the cars during stages is Julian Porter. The rest of them have no clue. And that is a bit strange having dome this for so long. It is mostly bla bla and some splittimes, but no clue on driving styles, strong and not so strong sides of of the different drivers.

I share your opinion. To me that kind of fast moving drone footage is just restless and pointless, taking the attention away from the actual driving. In Umeå stage I was in a section where they had that drone and I was spectating more the drone than the cars. This could be though due to the fact the drone is new. I hope the drone won't hit any spectator while flying wild.
