I have spoken to the FIA people and it is for this round ONLY. France.

They said we will have to wait and see for the 2013 season but they will be forwarding the feedback everyone is giving regarding the LIVE broadcast from this weekend to the new promoters but also everyone should contact and push our support for the coverage given.

Technically the coverage this weekend is only for subscribers to Canal+ in France or if you have the feed on your satellite dish in parts of Europe. Someone from their home is broadcasting the WRC from France this weekend over the internet for us to view it as it is NOT an official feed....

As long as they want to earn money with WRC by selling TV rights, instead of giving them away for free and promote the sport, it will be hard to get decent live broadcast.

Latvala attacking too much.

I think the Live broadcast for the WRC with new promoter will have to be done intelligently... Redbull Advertising on the screen when we're watching and possibly a subscription cost yearly or per round. I honestly don't have an issue paying to watch for it.... but others might not like it. They will still sell rights to TV stations across the world, and some providers cable or sattelite would broadcast it for example Canal+ or Foxsports or SPEED or ESPN or MotorsTV, you know where I'm coming from. There will have to be LIVE local coverage such as in Australia on ONE channel and TVNZ in NZ plus local broadcaster, who ever picks it up in GB, ITV or Ch4 if it'll go on Free to Air!

2 points for Neuville :D

Then someone will go to jail from Monday on ? :D

Should we start already to raise funds for a proper lawyer ? Because we need this unlicensed Internet broadcaster to remain at large, so he/she can do it again in the future!
