Motorsport on TV in 2012

Was on Eurosport last year but they've confirmed they don't have it this year. Would be nice if Sky can show all the support races but I don't think it's possible.
 
Would be great. Only issue would be showing everything live, as some of the support races run at the same time as build up or post session analysis for the F1 program.

But having F1, GP2 and GP3 on the same channel would be great.

I'm sorry, but what?

2011 saw the highest number of manufacturers and highest number of cars ever on a BTCC grid. The 3 live races and full coverage of all support races in a 6+ hour long program every race sunday is the best coverage the sport has ever had, and is better than a lot of other World series. And the last few seasons have been epically close right to the end!

Must admit I haven't watched it in the last 5 years because it was getting worse, if it's become much better like you said then maybe I'll start watching it again.
 
The problem with the BTCC now is one of car snobbery.

I know plenty of people who don't watch it because 'its just full of hatchbacks'.

But if you ignore that and just watch the racing, its brilliant. Its always nose to tail stuff, plenty of overtaking, and the coverage of the whole weekend including all the support races that ITV4 do is simply brilliant.

I suggest you find a sunday when you aren't doing much and stick it on. Its 6 solid hours of racing.
 
Problem with the BTCC at the moment is the works cars (Honda and vauxhall I think with some factory support from Ford?) Are all winning and there were huge arguments about boost levels allowed on the factory ford cars as they had Turbo charged engines amd Jason Plato was always moaning whenever he didn't win and they did! Are they going to have all the same spec of cars this year?
 
Added the Blancpain Endurance Series which includes the Nurburgring 24 hours. God I can't wait to get MotorsTV

And MissCheif, you have combined bits of 2010 with bits of 2011 and bits completely made up about the BTCC.
 
From someone who barely watches NASCAR, what makes the trucks good?

Added the trucks to the list too. Anyone know any news on some of the ones currently sat in the unconfirmed list?
