It's nice to see that the F3 Euroseries is being covered this year, but how come there's no DTM qualifying listed for Saturday on Motors TV?

hi all

what a load of old rubbish not showing the qualifying live on saturdays, really makes me want to give up viewing the sport as it has ruined the weekend lead in to race day on sunday, so for all those watching on sunday you will not know how it went on saturday and what the grid line up is, taking the piss i think.

any way most be off have a flight to catch and get myself to Hockenheim for a beer or two with Gary and the others at mercedes...................

So, Fredrik, what is the excuse this time?

Here's an idea - if MotorsTV is so bad and can't do anything right, why don't you start your own TV-channel?

Whats happening to Motors tv these days? first no live BTCC, now only half the race weekend for the DTM....Seems like motors tv is getting no better than Eurosport or ITV

Frankly if it comes down to a choice between DTM qualifying and Live F3 Euroseries racing, which seems to be the case, I would take the racing every time.

"Here's an idea - if MotorsTV is so bad and can't do anything right, why don't you start your own TV-channel?"

That's a fantastic idea......that way we could get rid of Carlton!

What a load of rubbish. How can you enjoy the DTM weekend without seeing the qualifying session?? Sort it out Motors or give DTM to Sky!

well u got some suport races this year but i be watching btcc all sunday

Motors TV obviously think that Belgian National Motorcross and M80 are far more interesting. I'll be listening to the Fan Radio and watching the Live Timing on the DTM website

oh great... why not show the qualifying... its only 1 hour long - and SO many people watch it, why would you take that off and put some other rubbish on that no one will bother to watch

same with champ car, that was on eurosport

i remember last year it was DTM qually and the races, which broke up a whole weekend of BTCC coverage - and that is something to boast about as a channel... instead the BTCC is on another random channel ive never watched before... its pathetic

have motorstv lost their idea of making a great motorsport channel?

Why should MotorsTV "give" it to Sky? The DTM rights aren't exclusive (we have two channels here in Sweden that will show DTM live this year, just to make an example), so if you aren't happy with how MotorsTV does it you can always ask Sky, ITV, Channel 5, Men & Motors or whatever other channel you have there in the UK to bring it in...

This thread is getting as bad as the btcc one, i'm sick of it. at least we have it, when it dissappears completely from uk tv then moan, for now live with it

OK, so maybe we've been spoilt over the past couple of years with BTCC & DTM coverage on Motors.
We all know that the BTCC coverage was lost because Alan Gow "sold out" to Setanta Sports with a money over fans attitude, but it would be nice if we at least had an official quote to explain why the DTM qualifying is no longer being shown.

I'm actually more annoyed by the extremely poor quality of MotorsTV.

How the hell are we supposed to know who's who if we can't even read the race standings:
