    Greater TV coverage is good news for all the fans of the sport. More people watching means more exposure for the teams, and that means more interest from them, and bigger budgets for them to compete.
    That means better sport for us. If people are interested in watching podiums, then let them watch. If that is what it takes to increase coverage, then go for it. TV coverage has seen increasing viewer numbers, so someone is doing something right, even if it may not suit the purists.

    Does calendar for future years deserve it's own thread ? A place where you can more easily locate those announcements of event getting multi year deals from the promoter ?

    Re TV/ Online coverage - there should be at least one stage (run twice) shown live each day.

    With modern tech, helicopters, drones, onboards etc how hard can it be...

    Technology has become smaller, cheaper and more portable and I dont see cost as an excuse...

    And the stages are all being filmed anyway, so its just a question of showing the pictures live not recorded.
