Versus network will have a daily highlight show, so check your local listings ! We will have the daily highlights here too.

Is your daily coverage going to be the same as Versus, because Versus isn't on DirecTv anymore. SUCKS!

we should have the versus coverage, as well as some video from the team.

I dumped Direct last month(even though I HATE cable) so I could have VS. I said I never would and I am so happy I did it since BJ is driving!!

derict TV no longer has verses & I'm on dial up 2-3 hours of downloads for 1/2 hour show what else can I do ?

Starbucks or someplace else with free WiFi to do your downloading.
And if you haven't already, all you DirecTV folks should be complaining like crazy to them to restore your Versus.

you have obviously never had them as a service. IF you get someone in this country on the other end of the line they don't understand our need to watch racing, or sports. I gave up and switched! I miss my good HD and less compressed signal though.

I don't get Cable or Dish/Direct TV.
I've found Eurosport & a few of the Aussie channels give some pretty good reports. (in English)
3 yrs ago Eurosport rocked, but last year I had some issues with occasional blocking.

Last year was covered rather well by SBS.com
Here's last years link:

Here's the 2010 link

I hope it works as well as last year.

Working on a computer all day allows me to follow most of the live results as well.
When thay ran in Africa, I'd log in as soon as I got to the office & it was over by lunch,
Foreign TV has evening news results before I left, now I have to wait overnight...

In this day and age how come there isn't a dedicated outlet for live viewing of this event. This race is huge over in Europe, a lot more than in the U.S. Versus tried to butt rape DirecTv this year so there goes that for me at least. I guess a race like this is just to wide spread for something like that.

I haven't been paying attention what is up with BJ, is he driving again?
