Oh dear oh dear!! What a cringeworthy presentation. Filmed in what looked like a school gymnasium. Awkward at the best of times. Evidently low-budget and Dylan Gray trying to rally people into shouting out a "code" of 4625 to open the safe (aka cloth screen) and reveal the clearly bored-stupid riders on the stage (plinth), was hideously executed. The start stop nature of the whole thing was painful, forever tripping over each other, the presenters having to satisfy Movistar (who are bankrolling the team) by addressing them in Spanish and the English speaking remainder. Reminded me of the cluster-f**k that was the Brit Awards with Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood. Ducati may have had a few issues with their feeds at times when streaming live events, but their MotoGP 2018 presentation was way more polished than this. The last five mins with Dylan running around trying to orchestrate the press and photographers was like listening to someone trying to herd up a group of errant children.
