Similar here here, mostly because i’m working a lot of the time during a rally. Being able to follow an event from start to finish isn’t really going to fit with most people’s lives, but the powerstage format on a Sunday is really perfect for live TV and the casual fan.Quote:

Powerstage is an entertaining and spectacular tv product and the promoter should concentrate on getting this in front of as many eyeballs as possible to provide good value for the manufacturers and sponsors and to draw more people in to purchasing their All-Live product.
The Power Stage should be free on Red Bull TV and/or YouTube.....
I do! Im a big fan of Kristoffersson and I also like to follow Loeb, Carlos, the Hansen brothers, I have this little crush on Cattie Munnings and on Mikhaela. Im also a big Tanner Foust fan so this year Im even more interested. I used to watch Emma Gilmore in GRC and NZ Rally Highlights too. So its all about the drivers for me. I always skip the "save the planet" part of the show (80% of the broadcast haha). Im not a big fan os spec suvs tho. If it was more open or at least like Dakar's, It'd be one of my favorite series for sure.Quote:

We are even 3 of us having it on in the background at the garage on Fridays. Not so much onboards anymore because of the angles.
Extreme-e is decent with always something crazy happening, i also skip through the talking.
I'm not sure that's so true...Quote:

Formula E is behind the red button on C4 if it's there at all.... It gets constantly bounced around. It may as well no exist.
I suspect that would destroy the sales model. It would be the premium product that broadcasters buy...Quote:

No different to F1's own F1 TV product. That's extra money, not the main source of income....
