Le Mans 2005 TV Coverage

[flinny]

As unfortunately I can't go this year. Does anyone know if the race is being covered on any terrestrial channels ??

Whilst the thought of sitting at home on the sofa with my feet in the washing up bowl and a beer in my hand isn't quite as appealing as what could await me at Le Mans, I must try and do something to help my yearning

Only TV coverage I have found in recent years has been on Eurosport which is not terrestrial - so not much help to you - Sorry

Not yet on my freeview box. Only just got Men and Motors a couple of weeks ago.... still as you say, only £30 - once!

Mind you - if you have a sky box & dish - I think Eurosport is a free chanel .. not needing a subscription.

At leastthat used to be the case

Looks like eurosport have pretty much wall to wall coverage. No plans to bring eurosport to freeview though according to their very helpful person. I have trawled the ITV schedules but cannot find mention of it. Maybe if it was re-titled "Celebrity Lemans" there would be coverage. Chance of ITV putting something on people might want too watch is a bit slim at the mo.

Eurosport's now available from Top Up TV so you can get it on your freeview box for an additional monthly subscrition.
