TV Alert - Canadians
Found this posted on AtlasF1 site ...
http://www.exn.ca/ontv/default.asp?S...10%202004&TZ=0 On Thursday, June 10th Discovery Channel is airing a 3 hour look at F1. It appears that it will be from Williams F1 POV. It's airing from 8pm - 11pm. They're going to take a look at the technology, race day prep, and whether the driver or car is more important Secret Life of Formula One Part One Revealing the top-secret thinking behind F1 racing, the BMW Williams team explains its inner workings; British engineers turned a neglected sport into a multi-million dollar business; highly skilled British workers are being tempted away by foreign teams. Part Two Formula One cars are similar to aircraft, but engineering is now lagging behind in many crucial ways; has the technology of "normal" road cars usurped that of the F1 industry in the past decade? Part Three Explore the long running argument about who actually wins the race - the driver or the car; discover how electronic telemetry has overtaken traditional forms of communication; is it only a matter of time before we see the Formula One driver-less car?

Thanks for the heads up! I'll set my VCR. I remember seeeing another Discovery program that aired in the past featuring CART from the perspective of Team Player's and it was excellent! It got me more excited about the technology and the racing than I'd ever been before, and I became a fan.
