Why is M6 inviting viewers not to watch the final?

This is unprecedented in the small world of television. M6 posted a message on social media, on the eve of the final, to ask one thing of its viewers: not to watch the final live, but to wait a day to discover the Top Chef winner in the replay. why ? Because broadcasting the final on Wednesday, June 9, 2021 coincides with the reopening of restaurants with larger scales. Many establishments remained closed after the second phase of dismantling on May 19 because conditions were not met for a good reopening. Thus, M6 supports restaurateurs with this message, inviting viewers to go to the restaurant rather than stay in front of his television tonight to watch the Top Chef final.
