Rather than just talk to heat winners and the top 3 in the main, I would like to see them talk to other riders of interest. For example, talk to Eli after having a bad heat this past week and having Barcia run it in hard on him. Talk to Reed after the heat and Dungey's interview.
I'm sure riders and teams probably wouldn't be fond of it, but look at how other sports make sure their athletes are available to the press.

Good idea but they're not talking to anyone who doesn't have some kinda energy drink logo on their jersey..but what they could to improve tv coverage is cut down on so many camera changes per lap...fucking annoying. Cameras have a zoom feature-USE IT.

The podium interviews are the riders opportunity to plug their sponsors. It's the sponsors return on their investment in the rider. I don't see them changing that up.

I find the argument of energy drink sponsor to be specious, since Monster is the title sponsor yet they don't discriminate against Redbull and Rockstar riders. I think it probably has more to do with fitting all of built in advertising and general lack of effort.

Replace fans social media posts/pictures with stories of riders behind the scenes. Show replays AFTER the race not during the race.
