Since the WRC is in their summer intercession, I figured i'd spend some time trying to find some better WRC coverage than the shit that Eurosport puts out.
It feels like when I watch a rally on eurosport, i'm just watching the highlights. They don't actually follow the individual cars through the stage, they follow ALL the cars through the stage at ONCE.
I'm trying to find something where they'll show you a brief overview of each stage BEFORE the stage is run, then they'll follow the individual cars, one by one, through the stage.
So they'd do something like give a few minutes to describe the stage and its turns, then say Loeb was up. They'd show video of ONLY Loeb on the stage.
Once he's finished, they'd show Marcus and ONLY Marcus run the stage, etc etc.
I realize that this would be hard to do, since there's usually more than one cars on the stage at once, but I figure it wouldn't be too difficult to do if the video was a little less than live. Like, once Loeb finishes, show all the video of Marcus, even though some of it is dated (IE was shot while loeb was still on the stage).
Anybody know of anywhere I could find coverage like this? I just really feel that the current WRC coverage on Eurosport is really lacking. I'd love to see somebody give WRC a proper hour of airtime, just like any other racing series.
