It’s not just about learning and making mistakes, it’s the voice the tone and the general fitting of the sport , you have it this guy doesn’t 

That comes with experience as you learn to project your voice and let it "flow" rather than overthinking what you are saying.  Listen to some of my early stock car commentaries from ten or so years ago and you'll hear that I certainly didn't "have it" then.

Gruchalski was hilarious in his reaction there...

I would have taken the wheel off and presented it to Buckowski. Where was the team manager fighting the lads corner? Cieslak should have been on the phone.

I don’t think Nigel Pearson is a natural with speedway , he is better suited to other sports but you sound like a natural for speedway , this guy as inexperienced in  speedway as he is sounds more suited to golf or cricket

The match is being called off a screen though, so surely Will should have practised with some old meetings rather than his first time being live?  Things like not noticing someone in the middle of the frame holding a red flag and thinking the race is still going should be inexcusable.

Knowledge will come, but basic observation should be a minimum requirement.  The riders slowing down should have raised suspicion, the red flag coming into shot should have been something he was looking out for.  Learning on the job in public is a risk, Burnicle never improved so instead just put me off watching the SBP and SEC on Eurosport, but the basics need to be there.  The Buckowski incident was another where I still think he has no idea what happened despite very clear replays and shots.

Mind, he is not being helped by a poor sound mix which is draining the atmosphere from the broadcast, putting too much pressure on him to have to convey that too because the crowd and bikes can barely be heard.

Anyway, what a great finish and an amazing night for Freddie.

Had to switch to freesports as the buffering was bad on goldvod.  No problems yesterday but today frustrating. Let’s see what the second meeting runs like. Might have to rejoin widja which is a shame as the picture on Goldvod is excellent.

Overthinking is a killer. And if you are really ”in to your sport” as is easy IMO in speedway, you might start to think about too much what you say. As most likely you know stuff that would not help anyone if blurred out on tv.  :D
