If I’m honest, that was a difficult launch program to watch. Up front, let me say that I miss the extravagant launches of yesteryear but I understand the cost cap and need to save money so online launches of more modest scope have become the standard.

One got completely lost in his own thoughts and the hosts were not doing the program any justice. Ear rings clanging against the Countryman mic boom, that NASCAR-draw that Marty has and bromance for Dan coupled with the introduction of Stefano Domenicali who never showed up.
That last one is an epic fail from a PR and marketing standpoint during a product launch. I assume he was at a remote location and they were going to have him conference in but then Marty made it sound as if he was in the building so maybe not. Maybe he was on TV at Fox and the segments didn’t line up, who knows? Anyway, a swing and a miss.
