It’s a terrible sound mix I can barely hear the commentators at all.

He talks good but the mix is so hard to hear

He’s doing good, I think the slow live timing loop is throwing them off a little though

Actually covering the final transfer position. That’s a change! Last year they’d cut away to commercial before we even knew who was going to the main.

Yes, music to my ears.... and it's only race one, will just get better.

Ricky, I must say, must have done some work over the summer - MUCH, much, better.

Feels more professional right away, all around. No Ralph.... thank god.

I still appreciate Ralph, but Leigh is doing what he does, at a high level.

Ricky seems to have stepped his own game up.

Everyone sounds quite good tonight.

Yep, I think an american voice just ya a bit more gravitas. But I guess to Americans an Aussie voice might sound more exotic or something. As an Aussie it makes it sound more low rent.

Making the same mistakes everyone busts Ralph on, saying Hill has a good start and then 3 laps later it's Freise.

He's doing great. I believe this is also the "voice" of Dakar daily recaps?

He's doing excellent. It sounds like he's been doing it for years. Get the mumbling, stuttering Ralph Emig duo and keep Diffey and Ricky in the booth.

I think they're trying appear more international by having a diverse broadcast crew. I like it.

He sounds like the narrator for "Homes of the Rich and Famous" show.

If they wanted more diversity, they could pull Ricky and put in an African American like GL8

I think Ralph did an amazing job. This guy is doing well but I feel like he has called out the wrong rider three times now.
I think Ralph is much better.

It honestly blows my mind how much people care about the commentary. The only person that I thought needed to be fired was Ricky. That being said he is fine now.

I think people forget Ralph is the hype man. What is more important is the second guy to give a great explanation and stuff like that.
