Just heard on Radio Le Mans that ITV 4 will have 90 mins on Le Mans on Sunday morning ..

It's been quite some time it's Terrestial TV has had an Le Mans coverage.

Quite strange to have 90 mins of live footage in the morning and then not bother with the end of the race. Why not scrap the "Teleshopping" during the night and stick on live coverage for a few hours?

Good spot though!

Apparently the end of the race is being broadcast within the Touring Car coverage later in the day. Also loads of TT on ITV 4, and rallying on Dave...good weekend for motorsport!

I've signed up for this and can see all channels but the Le Mans one (which is blank).

Following the "contact us" links they say they'll get back to me in 48 hours, which isn't too handy.

Anyone else have it working / can shed any light?

Cheers

I don't think it's a problem. I think that option 'screen' is going to be the full uninterupted coverage of the race, a kind of special channel just for the race. The other two option channels are Britich Eurosport 1 & 2 with the normal programming which incudes some race coverage.

I am watching the streaming Eurosports coverage on JustinTV. But it keeps 'stuttering'. If I pay for the Eurosport player will I get a more constant picture, or is it my computer/broadband not up to the job?

The Eurosport streaming is exceptionally good quality. I have it on full screen on a 50" telly and it's great. My internet connection is about 3Mb.
