BUT But But !!!!
Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 will receive a record 20 hours of coverage.
Signature events such as the Clipsal 500 (9 hours),
the Gold Coast Indy (12 hours)
and the Sandown 500 (8 hours)

so maybe i could get used to Seven doing it :rockon:

But but but !!!!What this clearly demonstrates is the best of both worlds for Seven�s two major winter sporting investments � V8 Supercars and AFL. There will be earlier finishes than normal at three events where our coverage will lead straight into the Sunday afternoon AFL match of the day :ZZZ:

YIHA

Bottom line is:

If its a choice between motor racing and AFL then AFL will win 9 out of 10. That's my bet anyway.

My prediction is: We are gonna get shafted big time!!!!

I will be happy for Chanel 7 to prove me wrong.

Compromise. 10 had snippets of Saturday racing on Sunday and 7 will probably show Saturday on Saturday and "shut the door" on Sunday. Sunday is the points deciding day though.
10 was dedicated to the sport, 7 is dedicated to AFL.
Its all about money, ratings and keepings off Eddie.

I have had a read of what they are saying they will do, and if they actually do what they say their coverage will be certainly more live TV time over what Ten did but it is the quality of the time I am waiting to see.
There lead up news coverage of the V8's certainly does not instill confidence.

Not long to go and we will find out I guess....

Bring It On :rockon:

I watched it, agreed much the same as Tens presentation... BUT it clashed with the motoring programme on WinTV.

I didn't see any live coverage !!!!

And I don't think the coverage was much superior than 10's at this stage.

Too many ads, whoops sorry, too many laps missed due to the "effing" ad breaks(I realise ads are a necessary evil). But, especially seeing broadcast isn't live couldnt this be amended so we dont miss any racing ?!?!?!?!

eg.
lap 59 we go to ad break,
resume telecast at end of lap 63,
1/4 way thru lap 64, CRASH - pace car - ad break
resume telecast under pace car about 2 laps later ...
watch another lap and half under safety car, resume racing.
In other words between laps 59 and 67 we saw no racing ??? !!! ??? W.T.F. !!!

Disclaimer: The above data is I believe to be reasonably accurate due to my annoyed state at the time of watching BUT next time I have decided to make notes of ads times, laps missed, pace car laps, etc for a more accurate winge.
