Does anyone know which races are screened live this year?

I think they are doing a live pair (or is it three?)of races at Donington in June, and at Oulton in September. I think the third (first, actually) is at Brands for the season-opener. I cant be sure, though.

I think they should definatly have the first and last races live.

I like seeing the last race live, you have the celebrations etc, but the first and last rounds are at Brands Hatch, both on the Indy circuit. I want a bit of variety.

Anyway I e-mailed BBC online asking them when there live races are, and they got back saying they'll get a person from Grandstand to e-mail me with details.

ALL BTCC RACES SHOULD BE LIVE ANYWAY!!!!!

There are definatly pro's and con's about live races.

For a start if you watch a live BTCC race you miss half the action which is going on track, purely because its live.

The benifit of having post coverage is that they can get all the best bits without missing anything.

How many times have the Live TV cameras missed something i have seen myself at a live race, I could count forever.
