They showed it. Not sure what else you want bro. Honestly I’m shocked they were able to get Webb passing to get up to 3rd.

Are you trying to tell me you’d rather see Webb go from 5th to 3rd on the last lap than watch AP roll around in a mud puddle?

Embarrassingly bad. Even with the mud. That was really bad for the broadcast.

It’s impressive how bad it is. Their ability to not show, or talk, about the actual race is astounding.

Tonight was far worse than it usually is. I did however get many laughs from the ding dongs in the booth

It's pathetic to show the moment of the race immediately after the first turn. I mean how the heck can it be the moment of the race when one lap hadn't been completed.  I don't need a rerun while the race is going on.

Somebody commented this recently on here and now every time I see the “moment of the race” pop-up 2 minutes into the race I crack up. Also someone else pointed out when RC says “lotsa racing left” after 1 lap.

It's almost as if it's about the sponsorship of the Moment of the Race more so than it is about the moment of the race..

Should have said that differently.. they caught a few clips of Webb getting it, right before he passed sexton he landed a jump but you can just see the end of it. Another clip he was just WOT flinging mud everywhere.. 

They missed some bad ass riding for sure.

I think it's more impressive that they honestly believe that's what fans want. The whole production just exudes the feeling of rote execution without any consideration of purpose.

Literally the worst coverage I’ve ever seen of any sporting event.

I honestly thought I missed something but turns out I didn’t…. because they didn’t show anything.  Sad

You were shocked they were able to do the job they're hired to do? Incredible. Now if only they can figure out how to put webbs charge on the screen when its actually happening!

Broadcast fail as usual.

I'm just glad we got to at least see the rerun of Webb passing Sexton.

 

...all in all, what an exciting night....   totally blows the same ol same ol out of the water.

Couldn’t give a shit about AP jumping in a mud puddle.  Show the two guys that are in a battle for the championship, especially during a crazy race like this.

At the end of the 450 race when AP stopped on the finish line, I’m going why aren’t the catching footage of the race behind AP. It was so muddy, racers were falling left and right and they didn’t capture anything. Just watching anticlimactic AP 30 second lead crossing the finish… What a dud on the coverage. At least they later showed Webb passing Sexton…

What's interesting is they HAD the footage, the director/producer/Bondo was just out to lunch on whatever bs narrative they were trying to concoct. Just not paying attention because they don't pay enough for good spotters I guess? Idk. Kudos for getting (SOME of) it cued up relatively quickly after the fact I guess.

I would LOVE for someone to suggest this to JT$ (to suggest to Bondo et al.) on a podcast so we can watch him sit there and equivocate about how hard it is or whatever...even though he's been in both production teams.

They kinda had the camera on him and he jumped the finish line and nobody said a word… Did anyone else even attempt it?

When they were showing AP splashing around in the puddles I was seeing red! They the broadcast is shocked and says Webb got third and I was thinking WTF happened there, they didn't even know because they were to busy fucking around watching AP carrying on.

Where does "UFO Plast" rank among the dumbest brand names in our sport. "Plast"?  Really?

Same on the 250 race. With 1 lap to go, Vialle, the red plate runner, was like top 5 (?) and said to the big winner (championship points-wise). He actually was, at that point. But then, we find out that he finishes... 22nd. What happened to him ? Don't know.
