Given that it went through an extensive tender process last time, this seems like quite the cosy little deal.

finally some true professionals behind the cameras and on the mics...

Great news - loved their IRC coverage, lets hope ES can do the same with the WRC :)

Yyyeeesss.

I think we have to say goodbye to Motors TV daily highlights, haven't we?

Motors TV are showing coverage in their schedule

well, nobody hasn't said, that eurosport shows those highlights, they only do the filming and put the stuff togehter. maybe because taking eurosport in was a last minute call they already had contracts with australian open, snooker and with all other sports that they are showing.
