I loved that tbh, just about any fast paced sport could be improved this way. Wouldn’t really work for golf… But it’s almost like the rulebook for tv commentary says “Make it passionless and unenthused”. It doesn’t have to be Warnerish, it just needs to be joyous. Murray Walker frinstance.
Chris Boardman brought some of that to the end of the olympics road, wandering around with a big grin on his face congratulating the riders.
