That's his voice, right? What's the story?

Jeff was over to help host The 74 Show (Fox Racing booth setup deal) at the British GP.... he hosted alongside Georgia Lindsay and had a bunch of guests on the show over the course of the weekend...

I also think he does a few of those a year, I know he's done the des nations race calls several times in the past.

What’s the deal with him? He said last year was a really rough year for him!

I think Malin does a great job on his own but it's cool whenever Emig joins him in the booth. It's like two old buddies calling the race.

I asked the same question the other day. Would be cool to see him join malin on the circuit. I don't think he wants that kind of busy schedule though. More likely just some guest appearances

That's not the first time he's joined in on an MXGP broadcast. I remember him helping call the Ottobiano race in 2017.

My gripe is that he loses his train of thought too much, and he can't squeeze his words into a limited video space.

Is Grant Langston on the broadcast for 19 nationals? Or is it possible that Jeff Emig comes back?

Very nice to hear him in the booth again. The Englishman makes my head hurt as fast as he talks. I usually mute it.

Yeah he does. Every year he is around for a couple.

Imo Malin is one of the few sport commentators who are good on their own. But the combo with Emig is nice as well.

Jeff and Paul have a long history together and you can tell they like and respect each other, good combo

I didnt think he added anything to it in all honesty.
Seemed as though he would babble on about random things when things were happening on screen then wouldn't acknowledge them... or at least not until hed finished his story.
I think malin does an awesome job by himself and just talks about the racing
