We want better ETCC and BTCC coverage!!

Here in the US, we get NOTHING (except in print) until at least 6 months after the race

Hey, we should count our blessings! Back 5 years ago, we didn't have ANY coverage no matter how long we wait. That said, I agree it couldn't hurt to have more current coverage.

We only got the final rounds of the 2002 BTCC earlier this month.

We haven't got anything from the ETC since it restarted in 2001.

I guess that means we should count ourselves lucky.

This Channel shows the ETCC-races, ok it's far from a Live coverage, but it's something.

SpeedTV

People can see ETCC races live in www.eurosport.com with Real Player, it isn´t TV but......

Speed TV is a US channel. I'm not sure if UK has broadcast rights to it.

Motors TV (Sky Digital Channel 416) brings the UK live coverage of all BTCC races this year. They say we'll also get some live support races too.

And they're showing the DTM live.

Speed TV used to be Speedvision. They are 80% nA$$****. A program on that channel called Motorsports Mundial covered the BTCC, FIA GT and DTM, but never the ETCC or FIA sportscars. They now have programs on the BTCC, FIA GT, DTM and ETCC, and FIA sportscars but about 6 months after the races take place. You might be able to get the Speed Channel from some cable server or via satelite in Europe, but I am not sure..

ETCC 2003

Wonder what it would take to get the ETCC live on TV in N.America?
