I was thinking about teh commentators as well:
- The new presenter from the studio is good imo, she's good as a moderator and hasn't said anything cringey or annoying. It's not her job to be an expert.
- Desborough is ok as a pundit in the studio but was extremely annoying when commentating a live stage. He keeps talking nonsense about driver ambitions and what they said two days ago but offers practically no useful information during the stage.
- Molly Petit (the one who didn't know what tyres everyone had on day 1) is just a regular run of the mill interviewer but i'd move her to end of stages where she just has to ask simple short questions.
- I'd bring Colin Clark from the stages to the media zone. He can ask more interesting questions and I think he could have some nice banter with drivers and co-drivers
- Julian Porter is good in the studio and commentating, i wouldn't send him to do the driver interviews in the media zone
- Becs is ok, makes a mistake now and then but catches herself, she's much better at commentating a live stage than the two guys that do the power stage. I'd pair her with someone who is knowledgeable about driving/technical stuff so she can concentrate on fluff and excitement and the other person can concentrate on analysing a bit what we're seeing.
- Paul King is good as a commentator
And they need an ex competitor expert at each rally, the red bull coverage was very good when they brought in Matthew Wilson or Luis Moya for example.

I’m aware, that’s why it would be nice that once every few years they’d run it in the Autumn like they did in 2021 and then have night stages there.
