Multiple weeks in a row now they have shorted our 30 minute break between motos and neglected to interview the entire podium. 

Is this another case of poor planning by the MXSports crew?

Can’t interview them if they don’t show up….I think Cooper did the same thing last weekend also

Ah, if true, that's some bs. Just like riders skipping the press conference..

Can't blame the down votes because USA already blamed MX sports. Blush

There are multiple potential issues why sometimes the top 3 don’t get interviews. 

But as of late its been a time issue as well as a heat issue.  The heat issue usually presents itself after moto 1, the time issue is after moto 2  

There is only so much time in the broadcast window and for the networks programs. So if a rider is missed for the podium, they might get him in the post race show or at the press conference.

I thought they could get a fine/reprimand for skipping post race interview without reason or permission. Like the hot days at pala in a recent season they excused the riders from the podium.

All the riders were at the podium both motos. I heard them on the speaker. Thats a production issue.

Maybe DC will blame Washougal and take their national away.

Admittedly, I didn’t watch, but based on what I have seen lately, the only ones worth interviewing and covering during the broadcast are the Lawrence bros. Fans of the dudes, but it’s infuriating to watch the extended highlights, only to see a highlight reel of those two. Same goes for the motos I have watched this season. Hunter/Jett gets 9th off the start? To hell with the rest of the field, keep the cams on them at all times.

Cooper was indeed interviewed on the podium, but not by JT.

Watching on Peacock, just after the main race show stopped and the post race show started Weege made a quick comment, something like, due to the extra time for the red flagged race, there wasn't enough broadcast time for the interviews. I guess they had them on the post race show. I didn't watch it.

They played them on the post race show on peacock. The red flag delayed network programming that had a hard stop time.
