Needed this change in the stagnate way if doing things. Already drama, good riders finishing back. Lots of making up to do to get a good overall.

Are we seeing WAY more commercials than normal? Is this because there is more down time with less racing?

It does leave time to go to the liquor store and cook out between races so that's a plus.

The racing is good, the waiting between races is not. Way too much down time between races

They will double the pay too since only 22 guy's make the night show.

100K divided by 22 will pay much better than 100K divided by 40

The format is okay, the down time is death

It is 10 after 10 and we have literally had 15 minutes of racing. Not sure what could make this suck more. How about another make up to mud C class rider interview.

Way to much down time. This format sucks and the TV ratings will be down.

I’m liking it. Every race is a main....gotta love it!

I’m all for shaking up the top positions. If the elite are struggling then get your shit together and figure it out

He'll yes Andy!! I've been following this sport since the late 70' s....and I like change. There are some breaks between the races , but having 6 mains ( motos ) throughout the night....I love it.

I love it,

I can tune in when the races start and go do something for a half an hour. And then tume back in at the next set of Moto’s. Thank you so much for making this a bit more exciting.

On the triple crown Series, you need to update the leaderboard to show the first 2 Moto’s with a moving final winner in real time

I love this I’m a huge fan already. You’ve got the best riders in the world and it just seems like they are just going for it.

Saying they need less down time is pretty damn easy when you’re not the one racing. Even with the shape these guys are in, and the shorter motos, going back to back to back is asking a bit much.

I really dig this format.

If you dont like the downtime, record that shit and stay off your phone (social media) for an hour and a half and start watching it, zoom through the terrible commercials. Thats what my mom does lol. I am at all of the races and have the downtime there is just as boring and awkward. Instead of commercials though, I get to dodge every affliction wearing, robot dickvape blowing, girlfriend arguing bro in the stadium on my way back to the pits.

New format is rad for racing, not so rad for people who's sponsors want to see their rider in the night show even if they arent a regular in the mains. Maybe start the new format off with the LCQ's to provide instant drama and then kick off the mains. Either way, cool to see FELD starting to implement some of the changes.

I even saw like one pass for the lead over the course of six motos! You can't beat that entertainment. Venture outside of the vital bubble and read some comments on any Instagram post related to this race. This was HATED in a unanimous way I've rarely seen before.
