do you have any sky stuff at present? if not, what about the bonus of cheap(or even free) broadband and free evening and weekend calls.

give them a call and sweet talk them. talk to someone with some authority and they may offer you a good deal to return. tell them that the nascar signing is tempting you to return but you need the added incentive. who knows, it may work.

Said it before, I'm happy it is on SKY. It will be on time, they will be reliable !

I hope so.

Just seen a television advert for the coverage on Sky. Getting excited now.

Good news is that the Shootout is being repeated at midday on Sunday from what I can make out.

Cant find the coverage in the TV guide on the Sky sports website but like people have said, at least Sky are reliable.

4. They are by the looks of it, not even giving us widescreen!
5. No excuses, if you have an HD channel and the feed is available, then show it.

What next, cutting back to the studio every time there is a break? I hope not.

Well I presumably like most others here are just happy to know I've got coverage, some people are never happy.

But we have always had coverage - that is not the issue. There was always going to be coverage

I am just saying that Sky are already not delivering what they could and am worried that we will get no pre rash show from the US, no racing from the track during US advert breaks and no post race pictures from the track.

I hope I am wrong and we get all that plus widescreen and HD. If not, I will watch the AS LIVE action on NASN2.

from comparing the Fox TV schedules and the Sky TV schedules, it looks like we'll be missing the first hour of the Daytona 500 pre-race show, but both have scheduled to end at the same time

Looking forward to Bud Shootout, Gatorade Duel and the 500 LIVE.

Cancelled Setanta today.

Well, I for one am not happy at Sky showing live Nascar. Sky's studio inserts are dreadful for any US motorsport, and they are not showing the Fox pre-race shows. Bad bad bad.

So, it looks like NASN2 replays for me, and bye bye live Nascar.

There isn't anything on NASN 2. The places they had NASCAR Cup are now TBA.
