of our discontent made glorious winter by this Isle of Man.... :) Title: Re: Mark your calendars: August 23... Post by: Cher on August 22, 2010, 04:40:13 AM Well alrighty then; first broadcast on the HD Theater channel of the 2010 Isle of Man TT is tomorrow night (Monday 8/23) from 8pm to 9pm. It is coverage of the practice sessions for all the races that were held this year in mid-July. There's also a re-run of the same program from 3am - 4am on Tuesday morning (8/24). Then on Monday late-night/early Tuesday morning August 30 from 3am - 4am there's coverage of the Superbike race. There appears to be no re-broadcast of this race in August. This is a good website for all televised things race-related: http://www.racefantv.com/USTV.htm (http://www.racefantv.com/USTV.htm) [beer] Title: Re: Mark your calendars: August 23... Post by: Pinocchio on August 22, 2010, 08:24:31 PM One thing you can say about the IOM TT: it's not boring. I wonder if anyone is producing HD coverage of the NorthWest 200 for TV in the UK? I'd probably have to watch that through my fingers!
I was starting to think I had missed a World SBK race weekend this month, so I checked the website for the schedule. No, they already had the August race. It was at Silverstone on Aug 1st. I do vaguely remember seeing it. It's been three weeks, and my recollection was probably overshadowed by that exciting Brno MotoGP race. ;) Since they start WBSK in February, and have only 13 races a year as compared to 18 in MotoGP, they are down to around one race a month by Fall. So, there are 3 WBSK races and 8 MotoGP races left in 2010, right? Jeez, the championship suspense is killing me. [cheeky] Well, at least these parades on the international circuits make the AMA races look more interesting than usual. |
