[QUOTE="rdc, post: 10451, member: 2"] [b]Re: WRC TV Coverage[/b] The WRC TV shows are broadcast quality productions. There is a fulltime production crew of approximately 65 personel, with several purpose built tractor trailers of editing and camera equipment, that are airlifted to each event around the world. The WRC series also has the support of several manufacturers, who are obligated to enter multi car teams, including Ford, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Seat, Citroen, Hyundai, Peugoet, and Skoda. MG is planning to enter a two car team, plus several other manufacturers have announced that they are considering the series.

Look for even more improvements in the production quality of the WRC TV shows next season as the WRC production company and rights holders have announced that they intend to improve the technical aspects and innovations in the WRC TV shows over the next two seasons. If you didn't see it on TV, did it really happen? [/QUOTE]
