View Full Version : ChampCar on Eurosport?

Anyone know if it's on Eurosport again this year?

Sky have just confirmed a 2 year Nascar Sprint Cup deal for live races, and the IRL deal has been extended until 2010, but nothing on the internet about ChampCar's coverage in Europe.

Any ideas?

Better coverage than what we have in the states!

Eurosport 2 again I guess?

Eurosport = 110 million households in 59 countries
Eurosport 2 = 22 million households (not mine) in 43 countries

If it´s Eurosport 2 I won´t be able to watch-like last year.
22 million housholds? - sounds generous to me.

Think about it guys, at least we get the chance to watch all races live.
Not like in the U.S. :)

Eurosport 2 - GREAT! Best CC coverage in years in 2007!

I watched last year and it was the best so far. Would be great if their was more prerace info and ints and good old Jeremy Shaw stopped thinking that we are all watching our first ever Champcar race.

" And driver so and so in 17th position and 3 laps down is doing a tremendous job this year, this weekend. !! etc etc !"

Cute but tedious. Hope that he is joined again by a good guy like Hinch. Nelson P?

Great for you, bad for me. I can chose between watching races via Race Director (i. e. on a lagging, blurry, small screen and even pay for it) or watching them on Monday evenings after downloading the illegal torrent. Judging from past experience, our cable company won't include Eurosport 2 in any package until at least 2015.
