Peacock producers need to be beaten

Thankfully they have dialed back the shitty drone shots, but full Spanish for the first laps of a crazy 250 LCQ? Da fuck? They have a Spanish broadcast, we're paying for a broadcast in English. Pull your heads out.

AITA?

It matters to me when I'm paying for it. Are they doing a French cameo for the Latin America broadcast?

It's bullshit.

I was in Mexico last week and tried to watch Nashville, but peacock said the broadcast was not available in Mexico.🤔

I kinda like it. Its ONLY 1 lap of the 250lcq. Rios and the other guy have a good vibe and its fun to listen to.

Lets not be eager to bitch about something.

Its 60 seconds of a 3 hour show. That's 0.5% of the show. You will live. Contrary to popular belief, people outside of the English speaking world enjoy motorsports.

It's a virtue signal.  They want everyone to know they also broadcast in Spanish.

They’re advertising to Spanish speaking people watching on NBC that there is a Spanish broadcast they could watch… like the other guy commented, it’s .5% of the broadcast, in the 250 lcq even lol

Is this the first year these guys are broadcasting this sport? If so, I’m impressed. I’m not fluent but spent a bit of time in South America. These guys are clear, concise and don’t go on wild tangents. RC should take some notes.

“Speak English or I’ll beat you up” is pretty problematic. Peace be with you, sheesh.

I am willing to bet they are not getting the audience numbers they were expecting in the Spanish broadcast, this is an effort (like it or not) to bring more awareness that it exists.  I see no harm in the commentators talking about it and saying it is there for folks that would prefer Spanish, but if they keep repeating part of the show (regardless of duration) in Spanish, it will start to look like desperation and get old - this is an English speaking country, I seriously doubt soccer events in England are broadcasted in Hindi.  

Getting upset about it is a bit overkill, but if it keeps repeating, it will get old.

VITAL: Feld, and NBC need to grow the sport

Feld and NBC: We're going to broadcast in a language spoken by half a billion people in over 21 countries. And we're going to use the first 2 laps of the most inconsequential race to let those people know.

VITAL: Mexicans are taking over! Theyre going to take our jobs,  rape our women, make us drink their delicious beer and serve incredible food!!!

It’s a marketing strategy, not virtue signaling ya dingus.  They want more viewers outside of English speaking folks to watch.

Anybody ever notice the folks using the term 'snowflakes' in 2024 are the same individuals that were crying and freaking out about masks and vaccinations just 2-3 years ago?  Not enough time has passed folks..  You may want to lighten up on using that term, might as well just save face and call whoever a pussy, it is much cooler and saves you from looking like a clown.

im confused. are these the same people who call anyone who challenges them a fascist or russian bot? or the opposing side?

everywhere you look, exalting & catering to 'the other' is being made a virtue, and i think people just want to sit in their homes and have their motocross and not feel like they, who support and bleed for the sport, are playing second fiddle to literally everyone else when it comes to the one thing keeping them sane in some cases. 

 

F1TV supports multiple languages, and they don't have to make a big deal about it because their fans are apparently smart enough to self-select their preferred language.

Are you referring to government overreach?  Why would you bring that up?

Bro actually think about what you wrote

For the Spanish speakers to see the Spanish broadcasters means they're already watching the fuckin show 🤣

what viewers are they trying to reach? Is speaking Spanish on TV like the fuckin bat signal that makes them run out the grocery store to their living room and flipping channels to find the one Spanish is coming from??

Haha its virtue signaling, quit playin

The best part about the spanish guys commentating is... I feel like it is better than the 5-person dream team and I have no idea what they are saying. Even RC said the same thing.... I wonder how self aware he is?

I could do without the Spanish too. The Verizon commercial in Spanish is what really topped it off… Wht ??
I hate to pile on, but the broadcast is getting to be less desirable to watch for me as well. I suppose I’m ready for outdoors !
