WTF???? It’s one of my favorite moto media posts, and Vital MX no longer does them after every race. Why? No final round version? I think Unadilla was missing, too. 

It’s great content. Please post after each race.

Did you ever think that ML has been busy doing what he does? Maybe its just slipped through the cracks? He does them off his own back

It does always surprise me it isn't more of a priority feature on Vital given its seeming popularity. I guess the numbers don't lie though and the other reports must achieve more viewers, but it's always the number 1 Vital feature that gets discussed by people I talk to, and it's definitely the thing I look forward to seeing most each week.

Even in other sports, having close up bike photos/spy shots/tech etc are all part of it  (cycling tech radar, cycling news, F1, VitalMTB's Pit Bits videos and photo features etc. And I know the issues ML has come up against in photographing some things under the tents, but it wouldn't need to be things the teams are actively trying to keep secret. Close up photos of a chosen bike each round is always cool to see what teams are doing differently, especially if we could get GP Bits back one day!

Ill be honest out of all of vitals content tests/reviews, his silly season vids, what we learned Friday now and pit bits are what I look for and the only thing I know i always look at is pit bits. Everything else is a 2nd for me. The stuff woth Lewis is give or take for me

 Not that its not good. It is just im more of a bike and tech content guy.

Instill love it but I like to tech shots of cool stuff on bikes.

Seems more clowing around in the pits and shots of the racers on the track these days.

I reckon the teams have told ML to tone it done with the technical shots of the bikes.

The Friday what we learned videos are the best. You get silly season new parts and more all in one video.

Hard no on video being better for Pit Bits. Zoomed in high res pics are the way. It’s the details! 

Video is nice for a summary of the event.

I knew it. You took a picture of me (along the fence) and I broke the camera.
