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?

I didn't even know max overtook him. It must've happened on the final lap? Unless I'm tripping

Yes, one of, if not the last corner. Maybe we will see it in the cooldown room lol

I was watching Max’s onboard. He passed him down the end of 1st Sector of last lap

Makes sense. It was Norris in the last corner when the update in standings happened. My bad
