But in the end, for the neutral viewer and someone who didn't grow up in the way that I grew up with the sport, but is maybe a more recent convert to motorsport, I think it's less of an issue, and that's something you have to take into account.

It can be very...

sour on it and be very well very negative I think I was maybe the most negative after Japan that was the most difficult one as a commentator to stomach but as a whole for this past season so far we've had a fun season in the commentary box and

And that is still the most important thing to convey.

And there's going to be plenty of good moments and the occasional yo-yo.

It's just infuriating, isn't it?

Well, I can actually tell a little bit more on that because I have a page and it just changes so rapidly.

It is millisecond work.

So what are you actually showing is so difficult to build a story upon.

And I think that if you had that graphic as well, things will be even more diluted for the viewer.

Now we have the opportunity to speak about it when we choose.

So when you're live, you really do not have the opportunity to explain this.

And that makes it difficult.

Yeah, it's mission impossible.

Yeah, yeah, exactly.
