[sirhk100]

So, who's covering the Dakar race in the states? OLN? Speed? Nobody? Anyone got a schedule?

VW Press release:

"The best action scenes before they appear on television

"Dakar TV” in the Internet: The first motion pictures of the Dakar Rally are broadcast every day around 21:00 by www.volkswagen-motorsport.com in a daily-review and background magazine. The daily-review screens the day's best action pictures, summarises the sporting events and highlights the leader board. The magazine looks behind the scenes of this cross country classic and captures the atmosphere in the bivouac. The three minute films are available in German and English."

Geeze, I'm blind, I appologize guys... As I clicked here to see the replies I noticed the exact same thread is probably just a couple down. I swear I didn't see it this morning!!! LOL Stop playing tricks on me!!!

It looks like the coverage is going to be the same as last year. LAME. 30 min highlight show which usually is pretty lame because, they also show the bikes and trucks along with the cars. LAME. I was flipping through my Cox Cable- Channel 65 Versus. All the shows are 30mins, about three times a day. LAME. Why don't they just show a one hour show with more footage?

Dont they know that there are two Americans racing that have a great chance of winning USA's first DAKAR trophy.

Ya, I wanna see Jonah Street and Chris Blais kick some butt. Running 6th and 7th after the first stage!

I watched the first show (on Versus)...not very interesting, only the introductions...and no mention of RG.

They did show a quick clip of the Hog Wild!
