The potential for something very nice is definitely there, but they really need to fix some of the most basic stuff first.
In random order: things like stagetimes not popping up (or very late), putting the wrong driver name (albeit for a short while) when they are (finally) showing a car live on stage. Or the stupid interviews before the powerstage... Or the telemetry which in no case was ever in sync with the images... Jon Desborough.. (I've heard him say Hyundai hired Mikkelsen because they needed a second Neuville, and that was the reason Penasse said they didn't win the championship last year THREE times over the weekend)...
Then of course there are the issues of the regular live timing as well, which IMO is totally unacceptable.
It is a mystery to me as well why the championship standings are still not up on WRC.com
End of rant. Hopefully most of these basic things will be fixed by Sweden.SimRace Vereniging Nederland

Potentially, it could be very good. However, I got the feeling they've rushed it so that it's ready for the start of the Monte. When you're offering a paid 'premium' service, it simply HAS to work.
Live stages are nothing new; it's 7 years since we had all but one stage of the Monte live on TV....with the technology now available, they need to be offering a lot more.
As an aside, I do think they need to offer more 'free to air' content; one free live stage on RedBullTV isn't enough. If you want to attract more followers, then currently what they offer ain't enough. It's a competitive market out, and lots of series provide free streaming....
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Mixed effort for WRC+ All Live in their first rally.
Thurs night was poor but there were mitigating circumstances with the weather so no heli shots and lots of picture drop outs.
Fri and Sat were a lot better with some excellent stage coverage and good interviews.
Sunday was good but a shame having to go back to the normal tv comms (& JD) for two stages.

Considering the difficult terrain in the mountains, and it was their first time, I think it's great! Will only become better from here. Well worth the (small) extra cost over the normal WRC+.
