Cooper getting the most out of every race without riding over his head while watching everyone else lose the championship. Looking like another guy on a KTM who did the same thing.

How the hell did the broadcast get stuck on watching Bogle ride around in 5th for an entire lap while Marvin was cutting into Webb's lead. Then Marv goes down (again) and they finally cut to the two leaders. Good God the direction is terrible.

Here is my thing. Ralph and Ricky are in a booth trackside and watching what we see ok screen. But the production misses so much. Why don’t they have someone watching the racing through the booth window. When someone goes down off screen and Ricky and Ralph don’t know what happened it’s so painful.

Yeah, but he is like EF Hutton, when RC speaks, people listen.

I like how they’re doing some race discussion in between the races for a change!

So are gate pics from the previous "main" finish or still off qualifying?

Everyone says that the announcing is terrible, but it is on par with the rest of the program. Direction is awful, Ralph and RC are awful, the only one outperforming their surroundings is Daniel Blair.

I'm just now tuning in. Can someone give me a quick run down of what to look for in the 3rd 250 race? Results are not on the main page yet. Whose in contention for winning?

This years SX production is worse than most any before. The camera coverage is bad, the split screen is bad, the replays are horrible (wait till AFTER the race!!!), the commentary is clueless, and the floor bimbos are useless. Ralph was never great, but RC has really brought Ralph down a notch or two. It is truly bottom of the barrel coverage.

Amazing the Nascar guy is far better than either Ralph or Ricky. Sign him up.

Ferrandis pretty much, ciancarulo crashed in the 2nd race and had a bad finish

Agreed. Blair should definitely be a full time analyst during the races. The awareness is just not there with the whole crew staying on top of the relevant action.

I will say that Carmichael is getting better in some regards, mainly in his willingness to speak freely and not sound so programmed. And Will Christien does fine for what she's asked to do, which isn't much.

And I’m sorry but we watch five mins of a wide stadium view. Why don’t we have a pit reporter getting an update on kenny or asking Eli why he keeps sucking

So a 4 man battle for the title is down to 2, and Marv trying so hard to ends up always making a mistake which cancels out all his hard work! Cooper ends up being the guy who manages things the best, looking like a veteran. I would not have predicted this but looks like it his title to lose now.
