As usual then. Looks as though ITV are not throwing any money in this direction. Let's face it, anyone on here that knows anything about the BTCC could do a better job than Toby and the less said about the camera coverage the better. I suppose i should just be grateful the best racing series is shown on tv at all.
I have only had the misfortune of one meeting on the TV this year having been lucky enough to be trackside for the rest, however, I too am sick of hearing "lights ablaze" and all the drivers names announced in elongated fashion! Really think it's probably time for a change!
I agree - I have been watching bttc for the last 6 years and have loved it - but have had to stop watching it this year as the current commentary has spoilt it for me - a real shame :mad:Quote:

He seemed to pick up on overtakes after me, but not bad overall.
Just watched the coverage — much better from Toby today.
Perhaps he has been reading this thread :P They still missed when Plato slowed down and pulled off, i could clearly see it but they didn't until the cameras actually properly showed it. Maybe i'm being to harsh.
That one is a bit harsh, as I couldn't have told you which MG it was - as Neate had not long rejoined and was in danger of going a lap down (or already lapped, can't recall). Certainly, I was concentrating more on the action than the commentary yesterday, which is a good sign on both counts.
No more Toby Moody on the BTCC. His replacement is David Addison.
