Did Supercross TURN DOWN a Netflix Deal??

- RV is one of the modern icons of Motocross. We are very similar in age and I followed his career from a relatively unknown amateur all the way through his incredible pro career. I have always wanted to have RV on the show, but I am glad it took us this long as we have actually got to hang a bit over the last 6 months. He's a legend of a bloke and a really fun guy to hang around... I hope that comes across in this show! We talk about Ryan joining BluCru, why redheads have the most championships, if he retired to early, how his speed would stack up today, and even though it is kinda old news now, we talk about the Ando / Jett situation and what it means for the sport.
I thought the series “ Inside the Outdoors” was really done well
Imagine if they done a “knockout” style race.Start with a full gate then every lap last place is eliminated til the final 2 riders and have it a 2 lap battle for the win. That would be awesome for a Netflix.
Ticket prices are through the roof they are making boat loads of money all teams should be getting an equal cut of the gate and TV contracts just like the NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB
Facts!
2 prime seats at Foxboro cost me $511, then add $16/beer, super expensive food, etc. Easy $600 day for 2 people.
That’s your fault for getting scammed. It’s also your stadium that makes the prices WITH the feld brand. I paid 62$ a person and we could see the entire track.
I had no idea tickets had gotten that high. They certainly weren't that high last year. I was lucky enough to get free tickets this year. I wouldn't have gone otherwise if I would have had to pay that much.
It wouldn't have been that bad but feld uses ticketmaster and each ticket had 40.00 in fees I didn't get scammed they were purchased through the official Supercross site but I agree it does depend on the stadium these were in SLC
This is a no brainer. There's millions of fans that don't know they're fans yet$$$
If suoercross was on Netflix like F1 did omg it would blow up like never before. I saw F1 on Netflix and am now obsessed with it! Like obsessed. So fun to get an inside look. These athletes are unbelievable talented!
And Supercross is a faaaaar more interesting sport!
Agreed
Would just bring a bunch more casuals that cry are sport is to dangerous or race to hard against eachother. It's a small sport for a reason
@@kaneCarter_ more fans is good for the sport, casual or not. You kinda shot yourself in the foot with a response complaining about the fact that new fans complain too much.
@@fudidle Idc fuckk emm
Me and my partner are die hard SX fans… watched drive to survive, knowing nothing about the sport or any interest… now we both watch F1 like it’s a religion.
The Lawrence and Deegan era is here and our sport needs to capitalise on in.
I’m sure both parties would put $ in for a Netflix series. Sport would Tripple in popularity
I appreciate that RV didn’t let himself get interrupted
Completly agree it’s super frustrating when he interrupts everyone. But I still watch because of the awesome guest he gets the Jeffrey Herlings interview was awesome. I really like RV a lot more now than I did when he was a racer. He is def someone that gets overlooked
It would have been a amazing year to document 450 class
Prado here, AP first win, Malcolm & Tomac returning from injury, Sexton New team, Jett off 22-0, Ando refreshed, Webb new team, 5:30 Hunter rookie season, it goes on but too late now
Jase out here still crushing it! Keep up the strong work guy!
The Moto was awesome they should bring that back.
The problem is Coombs, AMA and feld, they are afraid of losing control. If they really wanted to grow the sport as soon as they sign the deal with Peacock, they should have immediately signed the deal with Netflix. This would have brought in more of the common person not just the hard core fan that is a rider or racer themselves. With a larger mainstream audience from a let’s say Netflix type show it would be much easier to gain larger sponsorship and exposure as mentioned by RV. That would’ve gave a huge monetary help to the sport. Which should be put toward the riders, privateer and factory. But more toward development programs for the sport to grow. The sport needs a larger gene pool in the main stream public.
I completely agree, it doesn’t matter where the races are broadcasted if the same terrible production crew remains. It’s almost un-watchable we have been complaining about the same problems for years and years.
Look at the all time winners list and champions. It’s very select group that wins..
I’ve always wanted to see Ricky or bubba or Travis pastrana on Joe Rogan. He would be a massive outletZ nascar drivers have been on there, I’m sure he’s seen dirtbikes before it would be awesome to get someone from our world on JRE
Identify the pain points and we will build a strategic plan to boost like you said Pay.🤔👍💯
Supercross on Netflix for an added fee would be amazing it would be so easy to watch.
I think it would be awesome if they did
Cheers 🥂
The Fuel TV Moto TV SHOW we had was so dope and then RedBull came a long and picked it up once again, transition to Moto Spy.
Then they fucking killed it off no stories of one being in Development
As long as the same production crew remains it doesn’t matter what platform broadcasts
This has been building since the 80's. It takes time to build a fan base. Decades.
If there was an offer & it cost 5 million it probably turned it down because they wanted to get through this first SMX where are they just combined they just got more money so it's probably just bad timing
The riders are finally making what they should.
Well maybe the top three are.
As goofy as the SMX World Championship is, at least the mid pack boys get a payday.
No they aren't. They barely make anything for a professional sport LOL.
Top 20 riders are a noticeable level above the rest. Varsity & JV
Why would it cost the AMA or Feld money, they're the product. Netflix payed for access to F1.
Need better camera angles that show how tough it is.
HOT TAKE! While I do believe more revenue towards supercross would be a great thing. I am somewhat glad they didn’t do the Netflix show. In my opinion, when something goes mainstream it becomes kinda lame in the sense that you get a bunch of people involved who don’t really know anything about the sport AND claim that they do. Perhaps that was phrased poorly but I feel like most who really have a passion for their sport understand. F1 “Drive to Survive” was sweet don’t get me wrong and did great numbers in all aspects (as if they needed more $$$ lol) but idk it just became kinda lame to me after it went mainstream. In ways I’m happy moto is more lowkey, but also at times I wish people knew more about it. It’s a slippery slope for sure, but I just think I’d be kinda mehh if all of a sudden people were geekin over supercross/Motocross.
The closest mx thing Ive seen like Drive to Survive was the Red Bull MX Nation CZcams series and it’s awesome! It’s what got me into mx. Check it out! We need more of that.
They already made it
I'll stick to outdoors, tix are much cheaper, and way better racing!
Why are AMA fans missing 85% of the Racing!Watch MXGP Coverage and Paul Malin? You actually hear about and See the Racing! Not Talk show!
It's a complete package. Do you not watch coverage on any other major sorts? That's why things like the F1 on Netflix has been so successful. Go and watch a Supercross race from the 80's and watch one from today. The coverage isn't even comparable and is in a different league today. There is a ton more to a sport then just the simplistic event itself. By the way a bunch of MXGP riders would rather be racing here.
@@kurtheidelbach No other Sport ignores the Event itself? I understand there's Promotional Considerations. And Everything else that goes into A Televised Sporting Event! But nowhere else do they ignore the Event itself. The Problem imho? RC and Bubba are just two simple guys that rode fast. They are not "well spoken " by any stretch of the imagination. Do you actually listen to what Bubba "tries" to say? He loses the thread on what he started out to say. And drifts around never completely finishing a statement! LOL! RC just repeats the exact same things every race! That's because he doesn't describe the only thing that changes? The Racing! Analysis or Breakdown is for after the race is complete. Or in-between. But definitely not in place of describing the Race for Fans at home? We can't see what he See's! We are counting on Race Commentary to describe the racing and add some colorful action words! If you pay attention? You will notice We miss most of the race.RC's Race Commentary sounds just like he does when your watching his podcast? Or any other time he's doing analysis! It seems people really don't care about the Racing? If they did. They would notice we are just listening to RC's Personal Opinions and Analysis Talk Show! MXGP is Perfect! It's worth twice what I payed. I just want my Favorite Riders and decent Race Commentary! Take care
@@lizzydog5728 😂😂Very obvious you don’t watch very many other US professional sports. Watching a basketball game now and they have the same overall objective. Not just “the game” itself. That’s boring and doesn’t bring the viewers. Of course RC isn’t in the caliber as some very high paid announcers. He has also admitted his shortcomings and is trying to improve. JS on the other hand has an extremely high approval. AC will be in the booth taking over for RC soon anyway so you will have something else to whine about.
Bingo. This is the biggest problem of the sport. It could be on Netflix tomorrow it wouldn’t change a thing with the current production crew. Nothing like tuning into a 2 hour qualifying session and not being able to watch ONE complete qualifying lap.
What does SX and a gangster have in common? 😂 lol you are so cute 😂
What I wanna see is what the riders make for first second n third the prices for both classes bc 250 should make 50k if they win a main and a 450 rider should get 100k juss from one main event n then heat races k fast lap times are like 5 bands bonus I wanna know what the bonuses are bc if they not at least that then the sport is robbing the riders
Yes they messed up
Rv sounds sour about it.
Let’s not disrespect Jett by calling him Justin Bieber.
The whole Netflix thing is great for the sport, but not great for the diehard fan who wants to be able to meet the stars. Call me selfish but it will make it stupid in the pits.
Agreed 100%
please bring supercross too netflix so i dont have to watch races on crapy youtube uploads
Peacock 5$ a month....
Don’t be cheap and get peacock 😂
Would be stupid if they did
I bet you're a lot of fun to be around 😂 I get it and was iffy myself on the idea but cmon how could it not be positive for the sport? The older I'm getting "core" doesn't mean as much as it once did and also mx/sx is close to the bottom of the "motorsport totem pole". I never watched F1 once until the show and am now a big fan following regularly. Also tired of explaining mx and sx to plenty of people unfamiliar. One click on a netflix series and think of the potential growth?
Yeah, a fantastic business plan and marketing tool to expand the sport would be real stupid 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
