The overall production of GST still feels bush league. The camera angles continue to offer weird shots of the races that also obscure how the race is actually unfolding (what is with the overhead shot of the finish?). Additionally, the times go up for like .5 seconds at the end of the race and then they pull it from the screen to put up a giant "RACE WINNER" caption -- like, yeah, we can see that?
Idk, I feel like some of this stuff is pretty basic. I get the idea to try out a new format but we don't need to do it with literally every aspect of the event. Give us a grand-stand panorama of the finish and leave put the times up as they finish (and leave them there). God knows the website isn't gonna give us this information...
I would also add, put the athletes' actual SB/PB up when introducing them! Showing us a "GST best" is pretty meaningless -- and for first time challengers, there is literally zero information! Show us times that reflect what their actual capability is!
