Seems I was wrong, it’s actually due to Dirtfish buying the BHP Sport archive 12 months ago and looking to make it commercially available.

Ahhh, maybe I can finally re-watch the 1987 British Open Championship finally :D
Just me or all of that Dakar Hype is already dead? I mean, sure, Im interested... but not like the past 2 years.
Weird...
No it’s not dead, whilst I wish it would be run over 3 weeks and in more than just one country, the scenery is still beautiful, the fight is still intense and this might be the first time since 2021 that a manufacturer other than Toyota will take the win. Also since 2021 you have the classics category to watch which is always interesting. The biggest shame is that there’s only Eurosport’s highlights of one hour after each day, and in this day & age, you’d expect a lot more coverage, especially from a race that is as unique as the Dakar.
I'm actually quite surprised about Duke not going on an attack.
I remember finding some old VHS tapes myself that I uploaded. Loads got taken down by Duke, even stuff they never had (other productions). And the ones that Duke also had, wasn't made by Duke, but was sold to Duke so they could distribute it to other parts of the world. So it should in reality only be geo-locked. Duke used to be extremely takedown-oriented.
What I meant about the Hype about Dakar was "THE HYPE", not the actuaaal race, cuz yep, it is a great racing. But I was feeling that the whole "OH NOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO RACE DAKAR" hype was cooling off, u'know?
Just read that Audi is shutting down their program to focus on F1, for example. Such a shame, that was a really cool and different car. WEC hype will probably also cool off after 2025 (maybe?) Same way Rallycross, TouringCars and FormulaE hypes ended. Motocross is experiencing this huuuuge boom with Stark, Beta, GasGas, Triumph, Ducatti all joining (or at least trying to join) the American and World Championships.
Cycles... motorsport is all about Cycles.
