Well you're certainly not alone, because several people, including Mulsanne Mike, The Rusty Hub, Adrian Michael Rees, are fighting the fight via Twitter, among others.

But... what's the difference of someone taking a screenshot of the Eurosport live stream and posting it to a social media outlet and someone watching it on TV and seeing the same image anyway?

It's not like the low-res photos of the Memo Gidley crash at Daytona by several people... this is just tweeting out what everyone else sees. Don't see the problem..

BTW Duval is in conversation with Dr. Ullrich. So he's conscious... great news.
