The press conference seems so busch league compared to any other sport out there. . . Having all the riders on the stage makes it just awkward for the riders to want to answer any real questions.

It's funny FELD and MX Sports hold press conferences but the press never ask questions. Then right after the press conference is done, the press try to wrangle riders into individual video press conferences.

Might as well just do a press junket like they do for movies and skip the "formal" Q&A session. Oh wait, that won't work because the moto press want to get the "cool" shot and not really tell the news. haha

I'm amazed at the lack of hard hitting questions and actual journalism in our sport sometimes. Instead we get multiple videos saying the same thing "How was your weekend? How was the track? How does it feel to win? What happened when you crashed?" Those questions can get answered at a press conference but our moto journalist think they have the special top secret question that only they will ask and don't want to waste it in front of the other media outlets. News flash...the other guy is asking that question in his super-special-shot-in-front-of-the-rig-with-way-too-much-background-noise video.

Keep up the good work guys...haha

At least GuyB and Antonovich will ask a good question every once in awhile. Kudos to them for thinking and asking good questions.
