Lack of Nighttime Broadcasting
Now, this might be a bit of a random question, but whatever.
Why on earth do they switch of the TV cameras from the Mulsanne, lead up to Indianapolis/Arnage and Porsche curves when it starts to gets dark? The majority of the night is then "wasted" on pit lane and other well-lid places near the start-finish straight, ending at Tetre Rouge. We do get the occassional 15-second glimpse of Mulsanne every now and then, through random CCTV cameras (I don't count the onboards), but that's hardly satisfying enough. I can sort of see the reason on wednesday/thursday qualifying sessions when they have to make the roads public soon again, but the race?? And don't can't say that the reason is the lack of lighting because that's not an excuse on modern day world and camera equipment... there are many other circuits with far less light posts than LM. Plus in the past when the race actually was not covered as well by TV as now, they used to have far more night time shots from the other side of the track. Is it just that they wanna give cameramen some rest? Well boohoo, take more shifts then. Flag marshals and others stay... |
