Swedish Gp Malilla Saturday June 14th


Recommended Posts

Has anybody noticed that in the Eurosport live listings for Saturday, there are other live sports listed and just highlights of the GP on Sunday morning at 8.30.

 

This is terrible that we are not even going to see it live.

 

Wonder if there will be any links to it elsewhere?

Yes there will be plenty-probably polish TV coverage however.

It is only Sunday evening 6 days before the event I,m sure British Eurosport will show it LIVE if they don't I will be watching live either way on a Polish website - if it isn't shown on Eurosport many fans will miss out on what should be a great GP as it's on a great race track

CURRENTLY enjoying Florida sunshine before heading back to the UK and Malilla ... will try and get an answer from BSI asap...

 

Could they change the streaming regulations on the SGP website to allow live pictures ?

HAVE been given an update by BSI but must wait until Monday until everything is sorted. Seems as though UK Eurosport's masters in France have insisted they carry equestrian and Le Mans events but alternative arrangements being made. Will post here as soon as given the green light...

It is the show jumping that's the problem rather than the tennis.

 

The tennis from 6.00-to-8.15 is a recording for Europe-wide viewing of that afternoon's semi-finals of Germany's biggest grass-court tournament in the run-up to Wimbledon.

 

But the show jumping preview show from 8.15 and live coverage from the French resort of Cannes from 8.30 clashes with the SGP's schedule for heats 17-to-20, the semis and the final, never mind any catching-up of heats 13-to-16 if there have been earlier crashes or rain delays ... the live show jumping runs until 10.00 so it's the first-third of that coverage that would be overlapping the scheduled last half-hour of speedway.

 

While show jumping doesn't have a large audience numerically, the wealthy background of so many of its participants and spectators means it does attract several really lucrative sponsorship and advertising deals that Eurosport won't want to offend.
