I actually really like Jeff Gordon as an announcer. He’s very smart and offers a lot of insight. Bowyer will definitely help by adding some more big personality

[@Landmasters]

I just hope that they don't let the color commentary get out of hand. It worked to Perfection during iRacing, but when you're trying to put on a legitimate Motorsport event it can be a distraction

[@DepravedCoTApologist]

I think Gordon improved drastically without DW. His chemistry with Mike Joy was great. It reminded me of Jim Nantz and Tony Romo for the NFL on CBS, who I think are the best commentators in football. I think he finally feels comfortable on TV, which will help him a lot

[@Gerarghini]

As a recent driver he really helps the booth catch up as opposed to the era DW was in but man his delivery is just terrible

[@gavinwinkler1147]

I feel like a Gordon-Dale Jr-Mike Joy booth would be really good because Dale and Jeff have great chemistry, Mike Joy is the GOAT, Dale brings the energy, and Jeff brings the smarts and the brains (not saying Dale is not smart, but I see him as more of an energy guy)

[@ethanwhisman5459]

I actually agree with you on Jeff Gordon unfortunately the fox Booth hasn't been that strong in recent years but I actually like the fox Booth better than I do the NBC booth I think they have too many people in the NBC booth all and I am a little biased towards Jeff Gordon since he was one of my favorite race car drivers growing up

Gordon on the D tier is ridiculous. He makes a mistake every now and then, but is almost always right about race strategy and diagnosing handling/mechanical problems with cars. The fact that he isn't a loudmouth self-promoter hurts him on this list. He never meshed with DW because Darrell was way more interested in being a comedian/funny guy. Jeff focuses on giving the viewers true facts about what was really going on and how that will affect the rest of the race. It seems Eric values style much more than substance.

Kudos for being realistic and truly honest. My cursor was tenuously hovering above the big red 'X', as you got to Rick Allen. He's the reason I stopped watching the NBC broadcast. I mostly listen on Sirius to those races. If you gave him anything other than his hardly earned 'D', you'd have been gone. As a 45+ year NASCAR fan, I mostly agree with your assessments.

Fun video. I personally like the NBC broadcast much better than FOX but agree with your ranking and evaluating of Mike Joy. DW was just not my cup of tea. I understand for some people he was great but he couldn’t get out of the booth fast enough for my sake. My biggest pushback is you have Rick Allen and Vince Welch on the same tier. Rick is a considerably better play by play announcer than Vince Welch. I would have Rick Allen in a B or C tier. Probably B but would understand putting him in the C tier because he can be a little sloppy at times but he has a great voice and does a very good job during pre race setting up the story lines which is an aspect of broadcasting that can sometimes get overlooked. Overall cool episode. I really like what you’re doing. Keep it up!
