Is RC involved with the racing team also, or primarily development?  
 

Come to think of it, will his deeper involvement with Triumph be a big enough conflict of interest to keep him off the main broadcast team next year?  I know that guys have been ‘brand ambassadors’ in the past, but this seems like quite a bit deeper involvement than that.

RC has nothing to do with this part.

the broadcast doesnt give a damn about conflict of interest Laughing

 

They had RC announcing when he was the part-owner of RCH, and he actually roasted his own team (Tickle) harder than any other rider.

Yeah, I guess I was thinking that it was a big enough conflict before that they wouldn’t want it again. I’m obviously giving them too much credit!  

On the Savatgy thing, it still seems like he’s an up and coming rider to me but it’s bizarre to read that he first rode for Hewitt about 10 years ago!  He’s survived incredibly long at the ‘fringe’ of being a top tier guy.

That's naive. Somehow he's influential enough to keep an announcer job he's woefully unqualified for, I imagine the guy that's trained riders and run a team might carry a little weight in hiring decisions.

Wasn't it Savatgy he was criticizing at the time? If he goes any slower through the corner he's gonna fall over.

What is the conflict? He’s doing the color analysis of what the riders on the track are doing. He isn’t making rules or divvying up the prize money.

That color works well on Steve McQueen’s Mustang or an Aston Martin, but I can’t imagine it looking good on a dirt bike.
