1987 WTCC - brings back wonderful memories but also makes me think "if only...."
Here in Australia there was huge interest with Channel 7 vowing they would show each race live. When the Brock/Holden split climaxed just before the start of the championship we were left with 10 minute highlights on "Sportsworld", a weekly Sunday morning sports show however this petered out the virtually nil coverage until the championship hit our shores in October.
I guess the Championship may have gone the same way the Australian C'Ship went in the wearly 90's with handicapping once the GTR's would have arrived on the scene and begun dominating. Nevertheless I also rued the fact that such a great conecpt only lasted 1 year....
