ABC/ESPN has rights to last 18 races of Nextel Cup for next 7 years doesnt it? with Fox and then TNT having first part of season, also ESPN have rights to whole Busch series for next 7 years, so will probably wait to see what ESPN offer us here in the UK. It will be a desperate disappointment if after 4/5 years great coverage we are left with little and possibly none. What about Sky showing us Fox and TNT covered races?

(Presume IRL will be on Sky and Champ Car on Eurosport as last year?)
ESPN have the internatuional rights to sell. So in other words:

Germany - Premire has purchased the rights
France - AB Moteurs have purchased the rights
Nordic Cos - Viasat have purchased the rights
UK - nobody has purchased (yet) the Live rights.

In my opinion someone will show it - ESPN / NASN I still expect to come through.

Until the sale is completed I would not expect much.
