Apparently the Promoter is boosting WRC promotion in South America; that's probably why Rally Chile organizer is interviewed on a regular basis and we’re now forced to get some lines in spanish and take lovely Leticia hopeless comments...thank gods Ciesla isn’t (yet) focused on China.

Disappointed not to see Tanak's arrival to service park to be shown in WRC+.

Yeah, they could show Meeke and Latvala, but not Tanak.

We should really hope that WRC+ does not bring for 2020 any stupid "updates", like 2019 the on screen graphics updates (revs and tyres) or other digital gimmic shit.
WRC+ should respect the subscribers more. Most of the WRC+ spectators are quite likely hard core rally fans and it would make sense to improve the real core product:
- Network / broadcast technical reliability, for example downtime, heartbeat problems, getting the TV app working and many more
- Reduce the delay in "live" image
- 4K Video quality
- Better incar audio quality
- Pure sound option always available
- Possibility to choose which car to follow live
- Possibility to follow cars or service park instead of studio
- Mandatory to keep intercom on at off stage mode
- Maybe also automatic high quality "webcams" from services and service park instead just showing rotation or cutting the broadcasts short
- All presenters with brains and understandable communication skills. To be able to give some added value presenter have to have more WRC knowledge than WRC+ spectators, even the ones with pretty face
- Keep bringing the current and ex WRC professionals to studio and ask new tight questions from them, questions that have not been in motorsport media before
Fixing all this should be quite basic task comparing to something what "something exciting" is most likely going to be..

Jape, 4K is still pointless on big scale. High quality Full HD is still more than enough considering the equipment people use. Instead of 4K it should be better image quality. Think KKS or someone brought out a few times that the WRC+ feed that we see is 1280x720, so not even HD really. And sometimes the images broadcasted look worse than SD. Btw, SD is 1024x576 (PAL) and 720 is 1280x720, so not a very big difference in resolution change.
But of course the onboard image quality is also down to the data bandwidth they use and I'm sure all of us would agree, it's better to get something in lower quality than have the feed interrupted every few seconds and possibly lose something significant.
One point that would be wise to do is to treat the rally weekend on WRC+ like a normal TV channel, so you don't have random amount of empty minutes between stages where you show a slideshow on repeat. Fill the gaps, keep the viewer engaged and it should be a better experience for the viewer in return.Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

Mike Chen and Andrew Coley would be excellent choice. I must say this exotic chick is a waste of resources. Also keep Colin, Julian and this welsh guy. Kiri and Molly are away for a long period I think, but they're OK as well. Others are just not my cup tea.

Almost all Finn's since Paavo Nurmi who are fast in their sport have been called "Flying", particularly the 1960's rally drivers, but I was actually thinking of "Flying Finnish" - the timing line at...
