Watched it last night. Faust is not a tv presenter, he is a racing driver. Sure he has car knowledge, but he doesn't seem to have a personality, at least on camera.

Adam Farrera will probably be decent, once he gets comfortable. In the lambo drag segment he was actually a little bit funny.

Rutledge Wood (is he from Speed as a roving auto racing analyst) I don't know. He could go either way I suppose.

None of them are good in front of the studio audience, and there is too much 'splaining going on. Just do the show, people will figure out what is going we are not idiots.
I don't see it ever rivalling the original TG, but if they take formula and apply properly and do their own thing and not try to be a carbon copy of TG UK, it could be alright.

I will probably keep watching it though. Hopefully the next couple episodes are better. At least the production quality is decent. The music needs a bit of work.
