Dave used to have a WRC coverage programme, not sure who's got it this year

Been looking around and it doesn't seem that a deal has been struck for UK coverage yet so nothing available for the Monte,damn shame, this sport is dying

Nope, no TV coverage for the UK yet. Really wanted to see the Polo WRC in action at Monte Carlo.

I think Motors TV will have some coverage, not live so will probably be on in a week or so.

Was trawling the interweb the other day, MotorsTV say they are not showing any WRC, nor are Eurosport or ESPN in Europe. Looks like we will be watching it on the net via Italian or German TV. Might try and watch via Finnish TV, bet they get excited (if ever)

This is utterly crap.

I remember losing every sunday to the WRC on channel 4.

So much more interesting than F1.

Such a shame.

Here's the list of channels which will show it:

I've watched it on S4C a few times... most of the time they speak in English to the drivers.

I think the sport is dying out, a real real shame... I remember when it used to be the Lombard RAC going up to the night stages with my Dad when I was a little lad, freezing my ass off, but then hearing the warning whistle for the first time and seeing a Sierra cossie at full chat thundering towards you at ridiculous speeds, huge bangs of unburnt fuel as it slowed down for a hairpin to then slide and dissapear off into the night.  There in that muddy freezing forest, a petrol head was born!

 

Such a shame if other little lads / lasses don't get to experience that early rallying memory :(

Not sure if ITV4 or somewhere like that may have it? I know they have the BTCC so it may not go as far as the WRC :(

Those were the days!!!,  when it went round the whole country, I remember in the early 90's watching McRae on his way to the championship and being stood on the end of a long downhill straight somewhere in Kielder, Chollerford or Pundershaw or somewhere like that when the Celica's changed down the bang was so loud it shook the snow from the trees.
