Dammit, the coverage was great last year... every night watch what happened that day! Now we have to wait almost a week and its only one day of coverage?! AAAAAAHHHHH

"2003 World Rally coverage begins January 29th from Monte Carlo"

The rally is the Friday BEFORE! :(

Maybe if we all send Speed Channel comments? I already sent one myself. Dammit, why do networks always screw with the good programming... if they play one more damn NASCAR live from the track during practice sessions I think I will go ape$%@!

I miss being able to at least watch TopGear. All there is here is Speedvision and I move back to the US only find out it changed into another NASCAR channel.

By the way, this would be appropriate if posted in the Motorsports > Rally forum. :)

I did sign the petition now, and I got my friends who also watch FIA World Rally to sign also, hopefully it will do some good.

I did not realize the motorsports had subgroups like rally :) I simply thought it was like the general thread with no subgroups. That and it was intended for actually drivers, like autocrossing, etc.

Don't forget that you can listen to the WRC on WRC.com. There is suppose to be someone recording it in the UK and posting it somewhere...if that does happen I'm going to put it up on my web server.
I was trying to get my cousin to record it, but no joy there.
