I'm not sure if that will be much of an improvement.

Greg Rust was Not Good, and the Channel 7 team was the best in the business, so this is a great change.

Just get Larko back in the pits and it'll be perfect again.

Yes, we need larko back. I'm not bothered by the change, don't rate either as better than the other, I just hope it's not on for young and old every lap.
