Jonny the spud 2,281 Posted June 27, 2022 Shiiiïït. Embarrassing from start to finish. From presentation, to air fence, to Sam, to the delay. How the he’ll go you expect to be taken seriously when you finally get a platform to show your sport worldwide and serve up this? 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Long delays, constant 2 riders on the trot, tapes going up not even close to even and then 2 heats short because of a curfew. Any first time/ casual viewers will long have switched off TV coverage isnt really doing the sport any favours this season, been some dire meetings, cant see newbies being tempted in. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
