    First of all, not to be greedy. When searching for a promoter, please study and investigate the backrounds of volunteers if they really are cabable of managing the job their given and NOT accept them with a first sight of cash. Now FIA is in a situation of panic and they have find anyone to fill promoting. Also, I wouldn't mind they would actually take the responsibility of their f**k ups... krhm, actions. In NHL, the organization took over Phoenix Coyotes and still are paying the bills, as long as they find a decent owner for the team. FIA is full of money, why won't they take over the finance of televising as long as they find a proper promoter. When Mr. Todt was elected, I was happy about it. I'm not so happy anymore. It's either he is not interested of WRC's well-being or he doesn't have any voice in FIA. Either way, WRC suffers bad

    Maybe that wouldn't be so bad. They have still managed to get Sweden on ESPN and Motors TV and some variety would be nice.

    As far as I understand it WRC events have previously had to pay quite a large fee to NOS, so presumably they have some spare money now to fund some tv coverage.

    FIA sees the WRC as a problem, not motorsport.
