Let us know how the coverage is.
Historically, I have been less than impressed with their motorsports coverage. I stopped watching F1 live and started downloading SKY coverage because it was so bad.

Such a frustrating show. I feel bad for complaining about it, as there's so little Canadian MC content out there. But it could be so, so much better. I haven't watched in years, but the format was so dry and dull that I can't be bothered to check if there's an improvement. Multiple YouTube creators have shown much more engaging ways to cover motorcycles, even if sometimes it can be a bit sensationalist.

If course, it doesn't help that Canadian (and US) TV allows so much advertising that it starts to feel like five minutes of ads for five minutes of meaningful show...

As for CSBK, while it's great they get airtime at all, I do wish it was closer to the event. Month-plus delays mean the urgency of live sports is completely gone by the time the racing airs.

Then get out and watch it live at the tracks! Its what I do albeit from the actual racing surface.

Ha! I do! Well, I do every year at Mosport/CTMP and will definitely be doing the fall Shannonville round this year, as we're away for the first one. But I'm not going to either Grand Bend or AMP for a variety of reasons...

Don't get me wrong, getting any air time on hockey-obsessed Canadian sports TV is a minor miracle, and I'm not expecting more than we get. I just find that by the time the replay rolls around, it's often been a month or more since the race, which makes it much less exciting to watch, that's all. There's only so long I can avoid hearing about results...
