Has anyone seen a program called Motors Legend on there? They showed highlights of the Formula 1 season from 1979 and 1980.

Motors Legend covers many different years and series as well. Although if the annoyingly loud amercian is providing the voice over I turn over.

Yes and Hopefully I should even be on it in the race/rally uk spot on April 28th...


Im just aiming to avoid being on the bit they show inbetween the programs

Does anyone know of an hotel that has the motorstv channel? as im not going over to le mans this year i was thinking of booking into a hotel for the night to watch the extensive coverage.

I'm pretty sure Motors comes as part of the whole SKY package. My Mother-in-Law has it - when we go round to hers for dinner the kids put the Disney channel on straight away, then when they distracted I switch Motors TV on...

Anyway, it's on channel 413 on the SKY package. If you get a hotel with SKY, you should be OK.

Check with them though - you don't want to book into the hotel and then get annoyed by the lack of GT racing and the abundance of German pornography...

EDITED TO SAY:
There might be a flaw in your plan. Most hotels kick you out by 11am, Le Mans doesn't finish until 4pm / 3pm GMT...
Bloody good idea though. Get some mates, beer, telly, pizza

In some ways im actually looking forward to not going to Le Mans this year ( been for the last 10 years)

as it means i can watch the coverage on motors... we still plan to pitch a tent in the garden, live on bbq food and lager/wine/pastis and build our own beer mountain

[zebedee]

can you see the tv from your back garden though? I'm going to pitch a tent in the living room, right in front of the tv

Come on now, I know Le Mans weekend is exciting but is there any need for that?

[CombeMarshal]

Me too, I think I managed to watch it all day last Sunday!!!
Great channel

[The Wiz]

Watch it a fair bit ... bit French but never mind.
