@rallyimprezive: I'm with ya. Weird that so many users have issues with the Redbull players. I own a gen 1 apple TV and have never had an issue connecting to the feeds. Sure, more cameras on the longer tracks and full race coverage would be nice, but I'll take it. Def. better than nothing. Although the days of the old Freecaster stuff with Warner was good, always a lot of standard Warner comments with a little language to boot. With the RedBull feeds I'm sure he's really got to tune it down :-)
But I like these Wyn TV clips, it's a smaller less crazy knock off to the Warner Diaries....the small pastry he was using last round was funny, eat as you go.
Is it just the player thats annoying in the "Recap 30 min video" because you have to wait until it loads everything so you can fast forward and get to the riders (a really pain for example on mobile devices)?
@Jim-laden: I think his problem is with how few riders are shown in the live feed. They spend the best part of an hour on the pre game show when there are riders on track they could be showing.
Do you guys remember the horrible Redbull coverage @ Cairnes 2014? I hope they grew some balls and aren't scared of a little bit of jungle this time round.
What kind of bullshit rule is that? Seems totally unfair to a rider who puts down a good qualifying run. Perhaps a privateer who could use the exposure of a live finals run or maybe in June, when that guy name Sam Hill might be fully recovered for Fort Bill. Way to go UCI and Redbull you really know what the audience and riders want.
@sickriderch: Apparently only the top 20 ranked riders will be in the broadcast. So say for example Ed Masters qualifies 4th again he won't be in the live feed. For example Alexandre Fayollie qualified 11th at Lourdes but wasn't in the live feed because his ranking was 40th.
You'd very rarely catch me bashing redbull TV but this is wank. If you qualify first you should be last man down the hill regardless off your overall rankings. We the people who tune in to watch the feed are not really gonna be the sort to say I only wanna see the big guns. This field is stacked with potentially podium placers far past the overall top 20.
@arnoldtm2: Eddie has currently numberplate 14, so he will start 14th last regardless how he qualified!? Am I right? Or does the points for qualifying count too?
@DHMF: yes I believe he is still a protected rider, thus regardless of his qualifications he'll get to run the final on Sat AM (12:30am EST) don't forget everyone!! You don't have to get up early, just stay up late!
@DHMF: Redbull live stream will show the run of the current top 20 riders. I don't know if the quali points for this round will be taken in account. But I think they show the top 20 leader + the top 20 quali (wich can results from 20 to 40 riders on the stream). Someone can confirm that?
@GabrielDugas: In Lourdes they showed 21 riders (got to count them really quick because of the event picker on the red bull stream, which is super awesome btw). So I think the top 20 rider get sorted out and then the rest starts in order of their qualies. And after that the top 20 riders start in some sort of order...
So with sik mic qualifying so high up but not being a top 20 rider and bryceland being a top 20 rider but qualifying in 36.... Who are we gonna see on the live broadcast?

Wyn, buddy, you are local wildlife.
