It’s not just Flo.
Seems to be a common theme.
They’re showing a great battle of 3 cars for a final transfer spot, announcer is going nuts calling the action of 3 desperate racers trying to make the show. The race is fantastic as you get to see the 3 cars about to make that final slider heading into 3, and then POOF, your suddenly taken to the finish line so you can see the checkered flag wave for the guy that won by a 1/2 straightaway. Grrrrr.

It’s like there’s some federal law that the winner must be shown crossing the line, no matter how un-entertaining it may be? Or it must cost the production team a ton of $ to use a split screen?

I mean, i get it in the big races/A Mains, but where is it written that we must watch the winner, no matter how far ahead, cross the line in a qualifying race?
At least on the CB broadcasts they were consistent..... they froze the camera on the finish line after the winner crossed every time, for every race, for 6 nights.... No matter how exciting the things going on behind were. 🙄
