BSB-Brands-TV

Todays BSB race has been snowed off at Brands. Last year ITV provided
coverage consisting of 1st race highlights and 2nd race live. No mention of
any coverage in todays TV listings, is there a television deal in place?

place"

Sadly, no. It was supposed to be on ITV3 and ITV4 but that deal seems to
have fallen through.

I dipped into the WSBK from Valencia and wished I didn't - who were those
commentators..?
I assume Eurosport allocated the BSB to the Burnicle/Whitham team?

Warwick Nowland was ok as the voice of experience but the lead
commentator is just plain irritating.

The pair of them consistently missed stuff that had happened, called the
wrong event, make blatant errors that a myopic retard could have
avoided, and generally waffled along in a tedious manner. Worst
commentary for a long time.

Bet Whitham wished he'd been in sunny Valencia.

BSB highlights are being shown on Channel 4 a few days after the event
very late at night.

Brands would have been shown on C4 late on Tuesday April 8th at 1am.
I don't know if it's the same time for every event.
