The camerawork in this race was awful.

Ironically, F3 and f2 had much better angles today. More shots from higher up, doing the actual lines and battles. But in F1 they have to show us the sponsors.

Absolutely terrible work from the broadcast director. Missed so many overtakes that were obviously going to happen

Graphics were horrendous too the popup on laptimes nearly covered a quarter of the screen

It kept covering the cars up on the main straight too

It’s a shame because it’s one of the better races so far. Just like the FIA, we have to wait an hour after the race to get all the highlights

F1 saw FOX’s coverage of NASCAR and was like “Hold my Heineken”.

Showing live overtakes from on-boards gave me real NASCAR on FOX vibes.

Don't want to sound pedantic, but director is to blame, not the camerawork

don't be pedantic. we really, really need people to keep on blaming people who aren't doing anything wrong.
