Review of D1GP on SPEED by Blaze1

by Blaze1

Did anyone watch it today. I thought it was a decent show, here are some low and high points from my perspective.

Pros:
1 hour long
Got the whole top 16 in 30 mins
Good D1ish camera angles

Cons:

Commentating was the worst I have heard in a while. It was like the guy didn’t get the proper translation of the event. His emotions sound really force, at one point he just yelled out DAMN. And there was too much basic drifting lingo if you could call it.

Terms “line” “speed” and “angle” shouldn’t be used that much, especially if you put a “killer” or “crazy” before them every single time. Please get a guy who genuinely likes this sport, I question if this fellow has ever been to a drift event.

The precursor with Americans coming to japan background was a bit too much. 30 minutes of the show was dedicated too that, and throughout the whole thing they kept reflecting back to the American drivers as if they are that relevant. I would like to see much more drifting content in a 1 hour show.

It might seem like I didn’t like the show, but honestly it was decent… better then what I thought it would be. Just have to put my dislikes in detail to truly get my point across. I will watch the next episode.
