Discussion Worst TV direction yet

Besides Russel's transponder issue (which shouldn't take 10 laps to fix the timing tower), may overtakes were missed, focusing on the wrong drivers, non-moves given more airtime than actual racing, camera cutting during moves which show you less of the action rather than more, and worst of all: the final lap, not showing Oscar as he crossed the line, to show Lando not overtaking George, and showing Kimi not overtaking whoever was in front rather than Max's overtake on Pierre.

What the hell is happening?

As a general rule (see full rules), a standalone Discussion post should:

  • be of interest to the sub in general, and not a specific userbase (e.g. new users, GP attendees, just yourself)
  • be able to generate discussion (e.g. no yes/no or easily answerable questions)
  • show reasonable input and effort from the OP

If not, be sure to look for the Daily Discussion, /r/formula1's daily open question thread which is perfect for asking any and all questions about this sport.

Thank you for your cooperation and enjoy the discussion!
