i check the f1i.com website quite a bit, and they recently put up an article
that said that speedvision (they didnt call it speedchannel if i remember
correctly) has gotten the rights to broadcast all the f1 this season.  great!
 guess i will have to wait until next weekend to find out if they do or not.
as for the Sweden rally, i know what you mean.  i have caught that a number
of times.  but, last night i think there was coverage of the dakar rally,
which was from the old speedvision.  i think i caught some american muscle
car yesterday also.  motor week is still there, along with hot rod tv if im
not mistaken.  the commercials for speedchannel seemed to give the impression
that they would keep F1, rally, Etc.
that aside, i to am very tired of the nascar programming.  TNT, FOX and FX
and i think even the occasional regular network already have (or had)
contracts to show nascar.  thats ONE series!!!  can you imagine how many
channels it would take with that kind of logic to broadcast ALMS, TransAm
series, F1, Rally, motorcycle racing (all forms), or even SCCA events!!  you
would almost need a satellite dish JUST for motorsports!  (hey, now  theres
an idea!)
