Where do you watch yours?

I don't get MotorsTV unfortunately so is there anywhere else i can pick up similar sort of entertainment?

I sometimes catch ITV4's GT racing early in the mornings at weekends but would like to be able to watch them during the week etc.

I'm fed up watching repeats of top gear and the likes.

Surely there must be a big resource out there i just haven't found yet.


Thanks in advance,

As you've mentioned ITV4 already, I assume they'll continue their BTCC coverage in 2012. That'll give you a full day's live motorsport.

More series are utilising the internet. gt1world.com streams live coverages of all the gt1 and gt3 races, plus has a large amount of record video.

Things like this weekend's Dubai 24hrs was streamed on the web as both video and audio.

As with all television these days you won't just stumble across anything decent by luck or channel hopping, you are going to have to research when events are going to happen and where coverage is going to be found.

Thanks for that.

I'm not hooked on it being live as such. Have noticed there is a newsgroup that has lots of motorsport (it came up in a previous thread for another forum) but it's invite only. And getting an invite is proving hard.

Wonder if there's anything else out there i can pick up or d/load.

Youtube? I watch lot of old stuff on it, even got to watch ESPN's WRC coverage on it for nothing smile I like Motors TV, watch it a lot but some of it's production values are piss poor.

Just checked out that gt1world and the linked GT3 and british GT website off the back of them. Brilliant stuff.

4OD's Youtube channel has lots of different races hidden under "British Formula 3 International Series". There is Formula Ford, GTs, F3, VW Cup, British Rallycross and probably some more hidden in the actual programs.

For a lot of club up to National stage rallies try 'Special Stage' on Youtube. Expanded coverage on that which they provide to Motors TV, mostly 2011 stuff now but 2012 season starts in a couple of weeks.

Example for you http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=specia...
