Don't know as yet - it doesn't show on the guide yet (on Foxtel in Oz anyway)

Anyone know when the France4 tv coverage is on in EST

I found the only way to get the aftertaste out of the mouthpiece was to run a couple of batches of 50/50 Bombay Saphire and tonic through the hydration bladder...

no worries about then malaria either Dr M...

VLC recording seach in extra preference and advanced setting.

I believe you can change that directly in the format you want.

In 2009, the first year the rally ran in south america after stage 6 the overall special time was 9hrs & 10 mins more then it is this year. 9 hours over the first 6 specials is a lot of time. Still a great race but not the same as it was.

hoping all these riders are orange, and i can see all of them if they the are not withdrawn.

So that i can save the link and use it the next time.
Last year i did it to and worked well

This year i can not get it done.
And then i changed from stage pos to stage hours the rderslist is gone and i have suddenly a country list of riders.
i did ctrl f5, to delete memory,

tried t find out who the malle moto guys are and riding

There is a maximum of the drivers you can track. I think this was last year too. I'll look into this soon, maybe it should be possible now. Next to that I'm working on lists, so you don't need to find the numbers yourself, but can select the class/list you want. I'll keep you posted.

Go somewhere quiet to watch this as you will get emotional. This is the spirit of Dakar not your motorhomes,physios and clean white bandanas.

Thanks EL, well done! I have the FR4 broadcast waiting at home but can't see it for 5 more hours. This helps with my lunchtime fix!!

You should probably stay away from cut & paste.

I finally just caught up.....Need to figure out how to convince the Mrs that 3:00AM is not too early to get out of bed. Thanks all for the daily commentary, links, video, etc.
