The way it is supposed to work (and having directed Euros in St Gaudens and Pau I speak from experience) is that there is a separate PA feed on the rostrum so the refs can speak to (and punish where necessary!)the drivers but the public doesn't generally hear this . The main PA has commentry only - this is supposed to be in English and the local language which makes things interesting especially when you've got Tony Evdoka full on (he did a great job for us in Pau BTW) and you have to try and get a word in edgeways in French!
As for commentary is general having tried it it's not easy - especially when you've got to do 2 languages all day!
