Eurosport Portugal highlights have started and they are the same with the one's from Motors TV: Eurosport em directo no Tvdez.com - ESTADIOFUTEBOL.COM
Latvala in the interviews sounded and showed very very tense.... the Number 1 driver sport has got into his head...
I remember Latvala always smiling in his interviews... but now nothing... too much pressure ???
What did we learn about that? Never keep your eyes on the ice.
Cheers again :)
LOL the phone ringing over the commentary at the start of SS2 :)
Well I'm back after a long self imposed holiday from rallying, so hope you've all had a great Christmas/New Years break! Will get back to the 'what is wrong with rallying' thread and all the others I should reply to! Monte Carlo has been good so far, and I'm not surprised by people getting caught out by super rally. I used to hate it, but now we see that it is sort of important when fans want to see the drivers.
Does anyone have a link to download Day 1 video in English? My streams are rubbish :/
Daniel Giraudet???
Great to see fairly equal coverage amongst the crews
Yeah, have you never heard of him? He's the twin of Denis....... ;)Quote:

well you have to compromise when you spend money to have your son in a WRC car...Quote:

So, let's sum up what we've seen tonight during Eurosport's comeback to the WRC:Quote:

- New and smaller opening titles, like F1 or IRC (10-15 seconds), as I wished some months ago. It's great for the international distribution, it's simply more professional.
I didn't like some video fades and also no "animations" to replays and on-screen graphics... but I'm sure these things will be arranged for the next events! :D
Just I'm asking what will Eurosport do with all the other broadcasters that just receive the TV-feed at the end of the day, to comment on it... Norway's Viasat was blaming it this afternoon...
Midweek Motorsport had him on ......Quote:

Normally each country who broadcasts rally uses the same coverage but has their own commentators. The Production company puts the WRC coverage together, then pushes it out to Eurosport, MTV3 etcQuote:

Latvala... Come on son... concentrate!
Neuville not clever taking wheel off.

Mini 2nd driver looks like a major PR faux pax, they could had two car on or near top3.
So much for Go Faster.. thats a contidicton in terms.

This year the organizers get to choose whether they use or not superrally. Monte Carlo chose not to while it seems every other rally it'll be used.Quote:

The first thing I noticed is that Eurosport aren't recycling shots. That was something that always irked me about NOS' coverage - it felt like they only ever had three cameras at any one rally. And while the fixed cameras are all mostly the same, the in-car and helicopter shots are shown over different sections of the stages, so it feels like we're seeing more of the actually rally.
Secondly, they're not approaching the drivers for interviews until they get to service points. This always irritated me about NOS' coverage; we'd see five minutes of post-stage interviews for every two minutes of in-stage action, so we were being told what was happening after the fact rather than seeing it.
Overall, that thirty minutes' worth of coverage from one day of competition was better than last year's coverage (excluding the power stages).
same thing i saw.slow entry,fast exit for Loeb.This part of corners was useless to see engine power.Just different aproachQuote:

First time with WRCar on studded tires on ice and snow. First real rally on tarmac with WRCar. First time in Monte. Nearly no testing and crash to end the testing... You cannot expect much from such a background :-)Quote:
