Yes they are but there won't be a coverage like in MC without someone else paying it.Quote:

Schwarz commentated for Eurosport Germany during Monte Carlo this year.Quote:

We need a mix of the WRC coverage and IRC coverage.

Someone put it to me its like cricket Some channels will be live all day and then have H/Ls at night and it gets viewers.
There should be live GPS data by now click on a car and you can see the speed and all the data. Its there so I dont know why it isent on the internet yet.
One of the producers recently said to me that most WRC events have live stages its just that no one will show it live in the UK.. I think this is bull after seeing how many people tuned into the Mote Carlo I would be surprised they couldn't fill it with adds. ( its not like motors TV is live all day so they cant say we are live all day like europsport could)
We should all contact the bbc stating why we think they should bring WRC back. With formula 1 coverage reduced maybe they could use WRC to fill the gap. This would also mean people like jake humphrey doing something and the tax payer seeing some sort of return. As seen with F1 coverage audiences have gone up. This would make WRC a more viable option for sponsors. We have 3 weeks at the most for something to be done. We could start a petition to show the bbc that people want it back on a major channel it will im sure also cost less than F1 (any one know how much espn paid). The bbc can be contacted here for those who want to contact the bbc directly https://faq.external.bbc.co.uk/templ...duleID=contact. Any one done a online petition before?
Or to Mark Thompson director general of the bbc mark.thompson@bbc.co.uk
I already did, yesterday.
