Next step could be in my opinion to have a few camera production of rest of the rally 2 field and all wrc3/juniorwrc. Same type of production like Finnish rally Championship this season but streamed to wrc+ and local streamers like Cmore in Finland. After the Heli and Airplane leaves the stage they should make option for you to choose if you want to watch the rest of the stage before or go to the next stage. I think this would improve wrc+ a lot.
They need the airplane to transmit the images, so that's not an option...
They also set up temporary network towers and use the 5g to stream every car live.
FIrst time watching the *26min WRC2 coverage highlights from WRC+.... and it was so fun! It reminds me the eurosport ERC highlights, where they would show everything in 26 or 45 min highlights. Way less confusing than three 22min highlights from each day. I know its LESS RALLYING for us, rally fans but it looks IDEAL for casual or non-hardcore rallying fans. For real, PERFECT format. They presented the cars, the brands, they talk to some drivers, then they show the crucial parts of the rally and thats it. PERFECT! They should have those on youtube for free or something like that, IDK. Excellent job. Do that for the top class too! It will help
Anyone seen the WRC2 Highlights package on a TV channel that shows the regular WRC coverage ? Nothing so far on BT Sport in the UK.
So about this rally tv. I had a look and it's like an old style tv channel with a schedule. They run stuff from their library that you can already access on demand. I suppose when there's WRC, ERC or WRX they will show that live. What exactly is the point in making this 24h live channel? it's 2023 there are so many ways to stream content, live or on demand. Who is going to put on a "Rally TV Channel" and watch some random rally review or documentary that they can access on demand anyway?
Just finished the 26min WRC2 highlights from Sweden... Ahhh, brilliant! I think Oliver Solberg is such a character. He is veeery marketable. They can build the story of the rally around him .... i dont know why, but it was really good!
As I said, it reminded me ERC 2020 when he was fighting Lukyanuk. This is so fun to watch! WRC2 makes me feel more "light"... I dont even remember that we cannot stop stressing about WHAT WRC SHOULD DO TO GROW AND REACH MORE FANS.. haha screw that, just give us good stories in WRC2 and its all fine. So cool
Its gonna be sad if the only ones who can watch the the WRC2 Highlights package are RallyTV subscribers ie. hardcore fans. These drivers are the guys who need the extra coverage available to all to attract sponsors.
