TdF World feed?

Peacock interrupts coverage on the feed they direct viewers to. Last year, they had a world feed without interruption. Is there a way to get that this year?

*** deleting expletives about frustration and hate for the 'coverage will resume shortly after a senseless ad ***' screen

I started a thread about the exact same issue! I hate the coverage with all the stupid extra interruptions let alone ads. Who cares what all the old bike riders in the studio think or Christian on the Moto. Just show the d@mn race!

I'm hoping the second feed shows up. Maybe we have to post our dissatisfaction on twitter for Peacock to see it.

VdV is better on the bike than Steve Porino was.

But the former pros Eurosport / Discovery + field are superior. Jens, Gilbert, etc. Adam Blythe almost lost his mud going through the Trouee d' Arenberg a year or two back. Maybe Wiggo will be seen again; I heard he is hard up for cash.

If the producers use the cut to the bike for access and insight, rather than a gimmick because we can, there is a value add IMHO.

Ah finally a semblance of peace. Nordvpn, Flobikes, Canadian English language feed Buh Bye NBC coverage.

Or Nico makes Ant semi tolerable especially compared Bobke, Phil, and the ex racers in the studio.
