    Apparently they had to dismantle everything to move it to today's stage during the gap so no repeat coverage of Colin's Crest.

    I guess they use the first pass as a reharsal?

    Few years ago a LOCAL swedish TV channel could broadcast (almost) all the WRC Sweden stages live. Why on earth wouldn't an organisation like WRC be able to broadcast 2 stages/day...

    Yes, my thoughts exatly. He is a pro in pro team. What are they doing in tests, if not trying how changes affect the car?

    A local TV station is doing it to a quality standard that they're happy with, whereas WRC has to do it to a standard that all their broadcasters are happy with.

    Hard to deny, looking at MC 2015 that the car is ok, and the factorydrivers struggle to get the best out of it!

    Broadcast was about the same, but without the onboard footage.

    Streaming in 480p 2 stages it's better than one in 720p

    That is a lame excuse if I've seen any. WRC 'quality' standards are s**t if you ask me, most of the time the audio balance between the commentators and cars levels is so bad that the speech is completely drowned out, their cameras fail constantly. There's no extra on screen information provided - ever, besides timing, as my wife - who's trying to develop an interest in the sport rightfully pointed out : no (current/top/avg) speed, no metrics on the car or the driver, no inboard footage of the driver's footwork. It's basic to the extra fullest.
    And let's not even talk about their choices on which stages to broadcast. This rally was a prime example: 21 stages to choose from, and out of the mere 3 they gracefully give us wrc+ subscribers, they include SS1 - which is frankly the most boring "rally" stage I've ever seen. Frankly, their work verges on amateurish most often than not. So much about that quality standard.
