    If they don´t manage to show WRC2Pro drivers then they should get some more cameras...

    Or rather skip some weard angels on the first cars...

    Feels strange saying this but I've started to find All Live boring. And once you aren't following with full attention, the info displayed on the graphics becomes useless - you've got no idea who was how fast. Still the same complaint that has been posted here quite a few times by many. Stage classification instead of overall standings.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    And they don´t have to comment all the time. It´s a good proffessional way just to let the pictures and sound from codriver be the show.

    Was thinking of a brilliant idea: why not build in a wire and have microphone at the outside rear of the car giving the audience real sound from car. Sound from inside is a bit tame and lame...

    No in-car footage still from Gronholm's latest off?

    Probably not until they get the memory card from the car.

    But I agree that this sucks and they could probably do something about it.
    Fair point about the onboards, I don't mind that, but at the end of the loop I'd rather have stage end reporting like the radio always used to do. I know it sounds silly, but you got all sorts of characters lower down like Linari and talking to Gorban's co-driver and with the WRC2 field as strong as it is here there's a fascinating story to be told there that they are completely neglecting to tell (in a way that WRC Radio never did).

    I have noticed so far today the commentators have been a bit less talkative (well except Desborough). Hopefully they are getting the message that we dont need constant talking and want to hear the cars and pacenotes.

    Disappointed by hardly any heli coverage today... 99% just onboards.

    Must be an issue with the helicopter since weather doesn't seem to be bad.

    OK, so I understand no onboards, I understand sometimes stage reports need to leave, but after the day they had, to not show a single WRC2 car through the last stage is utterly ridiculous IMO. I know it doesn't come free, but still, come on, have some pride in your product - add some value to the young drivers trying to make their way and to the teams who are helping them get there and advertise their customer cars.

    Where is the incentive for WRC2 entrants....a poor show in all. As you will know, it's a lot different in Sportscar multiclass racing, were the other categories get coverage.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
