i know it runs on euroports uk but dont think they do over here.
I sent Eurosport an E-mail on Friday and was surprised to receive the detailed response below.
Dear Dave
Thank you very much for your email and your support for Eurosport. There are issues of broadcast rights that need to be acquired for broadcasting different sports events and although Eurosport showcases more than 60 different sports in Asia Pacific, to offer our viewers variety and choice, to complete their sports viewing experience, we unfortunately do not currently carry the two events you are requesting. Eurosport is relatively new to the region and we endeavour to continuously enrich our portfolio of sports events to present to our viewers.
That said, Eurosport is very strong in motor sports. Coming up in 2008, confirmed motor sport events Eurosport will broadcast (all mostly LIVE broadcast) include:
FIA World Touring Car Championships (WTCC)
International Rally Challenge (IRC)
Motocross World Championships
Supermoto World Championships
International Formula Masters
In addition, if you are interested in area of motor sports, Eurosport broadcasts weekly magazine shows relating to this area of interest. These include WTCC Magazine Show and Tuning Mania.
Schedules of our programs should be accessible via the EPGs on your TV. In addition, is there actually TV guide from Select TV that you receive monthly, since we pass all our program information to them 1 month ahead of time.
Thank you again for your support for Eurosport and should you have other enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us anytime.
Best regards,
Amy Luk
