It's ridiculous. It's not a comment from a guy who has a genuine interest in Australian motor racing.
Supercars media supposedly being "world class", then infers that supercars are "world class". It obviously isn't, But when you can distinguish what you see on the track relative to other professional series, then that's the comments you make.
If you were to ask what was so world class about supercars media?

Err.. Umm... Actually Mixer did make a distinction because he referred to the TCR TV broadcast, and IMO he is right the broadcast, disappointingly amateurish. I own a TCR car here in NZ [were the TCR series is still struggling to get off the ground] however, my first love is V8 Supercars, and personally I think Supercars broadcasting is world class. Hopefully TCR Australia's TV Broadcasting, will now be of a similar standard to Supercars given that ARG has reportedly signed a production agreement with V8 Supercars TV unit.
