Nascar 2010?

[sprog]

Anyone out there know if S*Y got the 2010 transmission rights or any other provider? The start of the season is only a few weeks away! Thanks in advance.

ESPN is looking like the most reliable contender, so order whatever subscription you can get that ESPN broadcasts on to watch those cars turning left, and left again.

Looks like S*y got the Daytona 500 live and only highlight coverage on the Monday after each event, for those of you interested!

Open Access 3????

 

[wod]

yes there is a thread over on ds about it, seems a deal has been done with espn international which hold the rights to show the races live and they going to be on open access 3 live every week for the season.

well sly sport didn't want it and offer the crappy 1 hour long highlights so why not.

check the epg on dodgybox as its listed there for sunday.

Holes in tracks? Belguim GP in 85 got cancelled because of such, Dallas GP the year before went ahead on what was a skating rink caused by track breakup. My namesake scored 2 points for 5th!!
