24 Hours of LeMans on MotorTrend+

[touringmandan]

Anyone else trying to watch? The Camera feed seems to be TOTALLY RANDOM, and completely unrelated to the race action and running commentary. So much random panning that it could cause motion sickness!! Might be run by AI, with lots of A and no I. It's more like an "art film" on LSD. A complete embarrassment for MotorTrend. This is LeMans. Deserves MUCH better

It’s been garbage. 90% hypercars and very little of anything else. And zero coverage of our nascar boys.

MotorTrend is only showing the feed- not producing the show

Go Glickenhaus
And NASCAR

Looked like NO ONE was "producing" the show. We once tapped into the pre-production feed while at the Daytona 24 (had a VERY tech savvy buddy along- he tapped in to a coax cable on the fence behind our motor home). VERY interesting to see/hear what did not make it on air) That feed was much better than the random feed we got on MotorTrend+.

With Motor Tread tapping into the European feed and having a couple of guys / commentators sitting in a studio watching monitors, then discussing what they are watching, is a pretty sad production format from my perspective.
I had it on the DVR and blasted thru all the ads. Seemed like a 50/50 split, ads vs race coverage.

There has to be a better way.

Motortrend app, upgrade to +. No commercials. Can cancel anytime.

I noticed this a few times and it seemed to occur after I had closed my iPad and come back to it later. When I reloaded the page what I was hearing was back to matching what I was seeing.

You guys don't think it proved fake racing Like F1 and Indy car did !?
We always knew Nascar was WWE wrestling racing type Racing;.

Sad to see covid killed Major League Racing. Hope it comes back
Oligarchs have more money and say than the Factories now!

Huh?

I'm on a couple of IMSA fan pages on facebook and sports car fans are the biggest, whining, complaining bunch I've ever come across. nobody, and I mean anybody is ever happy with the coverage, BOP, availability of coverage, and whatever else you could imagine.

lots of purses being swung.
