Giaffone was a commentator at Globo between 2019 and 2020. He left, with Sergio Mauricio and Mariana Becker to join the Band team, which guaranteed the rights of the category from 2021. In addition to F1, Giaffone also comments on other Band and BandSports motoring categories.
According to the journalist, Globo estimates that it needs another former pilot in the team. At the moment, the carioca station has names such as Luciano Burti, former pilot, and journalist Rafael Lopes, who joined Sportv teams in the passage of F1 at the station.

From 2026, Globo assumes the broadcasts with 15 open TV races while the others will be exclusive to SporTV. The carioca station will adopt a similar standard with what it does with football: there will be a transmission to the open channel and another to the sports channel. The first will be leaner, while the second will have more time for greater coverage.
