MODERATORS
I'm not sure about live broadcasting, but it adds a dimension of data to reviewing footage.
If anyone follows speedruns in video gaming, you'll know that HR sensors are common on these streams, and it's interesting to see what happens when they're on world record pace or in a position to set a new record if they don't fuck it up (spoiler alert: it spikes, big time)
It would have been interesting in retrospect to see the HR's of both Hamilton and Verstappen on that lap in Abu Dhabi, or when Lando was getting chased by Hamilton in Silverstone etc - but I agree that live broadcast is asking for trouble during accidents, and adds to an already cluttered onscreen display.
Honestly I'd like to see it introduced in athletics - seeing the HRs of athletes during the 100m or in the closing stages of the 5000m or 10000m would be far more interesting... and make me feel far mor inferior.
