What's the Story?
In DRONE RACING LEAGUE, the world's best drone racers compete in a multilevel competition to determine the sport's world champion. Putting their skills to the test on courses set up in abandoned buildings, athletic stadiums, and even a few businesses, these racers try to prove their mettle against the most talented of their peers.
Is It Any Good?
Drone enthusiasts will get the most out of this low-key competition series, but its appeal to general audiences will be hit or miss because this up-and-coming sport is so specialized. It's produced like traditional sporting contests with an announcer and an analyst providing commentary through multiple rounds of elimination races and a reporter conducting interviews with the participants in between. For those with an interest in drones and drone racing, this is a great way to see the best of the best practice their craft. For others, it will be a bit dry.
