Why am I watching four guys give "grades" to the rider that switched teams WHEN THERE ARE BIKES ON THE TRACK???
Dear God, fire EVERYONE that works for the broadcast. Start over. This is terrible. It is so unacceptable.

Then show 30secs of group C, then go to an ad! That was 20mins of absolute shit!
New older guy doing rdl? Are they relevant in our sport or just stupid YouTubers or tixktockers? Osborn and nichols are good because they actually give insight of the riders and tracks. I don’t give a shit about giving riders grades…do that shit before or after qualifying.

They showed everything in B and C.....but run a damn commercial during A ?
I PAID for this so I could watch qualifying. Instead , it looks like I paid for commercials.
As of right now , I am not paying for this next year. I already have it on my TV subscription. Why pay for this RDL commercial / bullshit segment / additional cost program? Losing me as a core fan.
How much are they paying this new hack team? It's gotta be more than they were paying Holley.
RDL is a complete and utter failure now.
Bring back Jim Holley.
...if not....you might as well kill RDL.
Did it this morning in an hour and a bit.
Its just TV fuck wits doing what TV fuckwits do.
2. If you add information, it better not take away from the reason someone is watching, the qualifying coverage.
3. The demographic is not kindergarten children looking at TikTok videos.

Not a single person “casual fan” is going to search, sign up and pay for, on a monthly basis, a RDL subscription to watch Saturday practice and qualifying all day.
Casual fans watch SX because nothing else was on or there was nothing better to do on a Saturday night. Casual fans may or may not go to a live race and if they do, they show up late and leave early. Why, just so many times why do we put so much effort and time into educating people that don’t really GAF no matter how 3rd grade you make it.
They need a reset. RC, the best racer the sport has ever seen who has unlimited racing and bike setup knowledge, spent time describing the difference between a rectangle and a triangle this week, instead of how rhythm lanes develop because of the difference in venues. Maybe let Alex from dirtworks explain instead if RC is just going to oversimplify so badly?
Were fans, we know this sport inside and out. I want to see riding, i want technical details. Tell me what gearing HEP is running and why, is HRC still on new clamps this week? Too much flex? Not enough? What's it taking for Eli to triple onto the raised table, what line is setting him up? Seat bouncing? They're also missing an opportunity to talk with the mechanics and team managers to gain more inside information on how the day, practice and qualifying are unfolding.
I know there's potential there, they just have to want to tap into it.
