What coverage fo you prefer? Eurosport or ITV. ITV's coverage is better, but Eurosport is more in depth.

Out of the two I would have to say ITV, but i prefered it in 2003 when Channel 4 covered the events.
I understand the WRCs reasons for switching broadcasters, but ITV have done a scaled down version of Channel 4s coverage.
ITV does a one hour program at 3pm usually on the Sunday. However they made an exception for Wales Rally GB, which had 3 days coverage.
Whereas Channel 4 did a half an hour show on the Friday and Saturday, and an hour long one on the Sundays.
Also for the Live event coverage for Wales Rally GB, Channel 4 covered the whole of stage Margam, including the forest section. 200 cameras were used to film this first live WRC event in the UK. It was the largest live event on TV to date.
ITV only covered the Super-Special which would require no where near as much cameras and as much drama. I myself am not a big fan of the special stages as they are not a proper represenation of the WRC. Its close to Rally-Cross racing.
