WRC on TV?
I'm sure alot of you Europeans get to see the WRC on TV but here in the States since SpeedTV dropped it a few years ago it's been nowhere to be found.
Just wondering if anybody knows if the WRC is going to be televised anywhere in the USA this season??
thanks

You can find Race Central on the web (they are trying to stream their old episodes) or on the Altitude network.
In most cases you can download/bit torrent the Eurosport broadcasts within a day of the original airing for more indepth coverage. There is no easy way, unlike say the Rally-America series which at least for 2007 has put their complete episodes on YouTube.US Hillclimb and Rally Photos

Our local cable tv had a very ql wrc program but since Dakar we can't see it
Yes I fear so too, you just need to look at the new cost for tourists to get into Venice and when everyone sees the amount of money being made others will soon follow, and prices will go up. As...
