I hate how they keep interrupting the Outside house ads with race coverage.

Well for a long time all they had on the right were the womens splits, all during them showing the mens ride. I imagine it will be hard to get back to the trailing women, it will be crowded with men and women..

Good position on Knibb and she is quite smooth, not the rocking we have gotten used to

Touche.

Big improvement from last year

Do you think that they're aren't showing the mess of men in those huge groups in order to not get criticism about the size of the men's field? or is it just logistics?

I'm surprised that the coverage hasn't improved all that much in terms of the camera focusing on the same butt for a long time. We don't know what's going on with such big fields other than the person on the screen and rarely panning up or back so we can see what's happening. Perhaps it's just the nature of being out on a single loop course where there's limiters for filming?

Frustrating not to be able to watch the battles in real time that were hyped up :(

Oceanside is such a staple race and they've been broadcasting from Oceansid for quite a few years. Wondering why Ironman hasn't figured this out?

Was looking forward to the Race Ranger impact, too. Good on them for seeing the firmware issue and not rolling out before it was ready. But, dang, it would be really interesting to see the data with these massive fields

Maybe someone can occasionally put up the time split differences from the tracker, just too many windows to keep open..

I'm using hte tracker on phone and I cant even see the splits they are upcoming. So likely not a ton of splits today.

Knibb is quite good in an interview. Is that Kenny Withrow I hear conducting the interview?

What’s with the MPRO pack on screen? What the heck?

Some of those guys in that mini group weren't making any movement to pass each other almost going 3 wide. Will be curious to see if any got penalities. (yes I know it was only a brief shots of the group, but it certainly looked weird to have more of a jumbled group than legal distancing).

Yeah, was that Sam taking the lead? They talked about the drafting rule dynamics, but is that our new leader?

Looks like the 2nd and 3rd pack just merged, and sam is putting the hammer down. Will take a minute to sort out, but certainly if you plan on being in the race at the end, this is the spot to burn some matches

They are about to hit “Hell Hill”.

No way everyone was riding legally in the wake of Sam passing. Definitely some big time encroachment into the draft zone from a few people.
