Isle of Man TT

Well i sat down & turned on to watch the TT on ITV4 (what the hell the worlds top bike race is doing on itv4 & not itv1 i have no idea) to find no tt...

i assume as Marc Ramsbotham & 2 spectators were killed today thats why they didn't show any coverage.

would have been nice if they had displayed something on the screen during & after though (I must admit they may have shown something at the very beginning as i tuned in 2 or 3 minutes late)

I ended up sitting through some fly on the wall cop show assuming the slot had moved 1 hour or something. Only to find out it wasn't on at 10pm either.

what are ITV playing at... only putting coverage of the worlds most important bike race on ITV4 was bad enough, but then pulling it without occasional warnings during its time slot to say the schedule changed was just rude.

shame, i watched a bit of it the other night, been so long since I went there to see it.

well i have been reading on iomtt.com's forum & it looks like it has been pulled due to the crash... that i understand & respect btw... but the lack of information about the removal of the program is just rude.

looks like the media is now trying to jump on the TT (which they didn't see fit to cover before the crash) to decry it as too dangerous god some people need to get a grip, yes its tragic, but everyone there understood the risk & went because they considered the risk to be acceptable.
