Haha, does noone understand irony?

Seriously, there is so much compeition for motorsport on the tv, this series doesnt really offer much in the way of anything different and unless it is linked with a sponsor like Michelin who wants to pay for the coverage why should it be on telly?

Endurance racing is difficult to cover unless you do highlights, and as for ALMS, that is on Speed, who also cover a host of motorsport that noone watches much really, AMA Superbike, Corr off road, AMA SUpercross etc etc. All big in varying forms in the US but not here.

THe GT series has come up with a novel way of doing things by haveing it based around manufacurers, and that seems to work for them.

The simple fact is I follow most motorsports yet know very little about WEC, that tells you all you need to know, so enough of the crybaby "stop moaning about our precious championship". If it isn't promoted very well they only have themselves to blame.

And Peat, seriously mate, as if I give a flying
