This deserves it's own thread. Good idea? Should all the races be like this?

Certainly the delay between podium and press conference often means TV stations focus elsewhere. I especially remember ITV (boo hiss) hardly ever showing the press conference at all.

They made more of an effort than the BBC did.

IIRC it was the 1993/92 Belgian GP where they switched back to F1 coverage for the press conference only to find out it was being conducted in French and switched back to Grandstand studio! Bunch of amateurs!

And whilst ITV took F1 coverage to another level the consistency of post race TV coverage needed greater depth and quality.
