In france it's canal+. Britain has a FTA deal luckily. Belgium will probably ignore this series completely.

ITV4 will be showing it in the UK, so if you can get it for BTCC abroad then you should be able to use a similar system to get the UK broadcast.

First race is already next week :8: Time is going so fast...
I'm still hoping there will be an official livestream for those of us who don't get to receive those channels. I'm really looking forward to this.

Conway won't be there. Oriol Servia fills in for him.

I have a question about this series..
About circuits..
I dont know much about the calendar, but why dont they use the tracks that F1 use or other series..?
I mean because they have to build new track while the country already has a (F1) circuit.
So i dont get why do the have to build a track (probably street track) in Putrajaya, Malaysia, while they already have a track in Sepang?

I read somewhere that it's part of their green approach. Street tracks can be easily assembled and disassembled, whilst with building permanent circuits, too much energy is "wasted" (yeah I know, they are already built...). And they also want to race around famous landmarks.
I love street tracks, so I won't complain :)

Yep mainly street circuits, this is the politic is the new Formula E to help to be closer of the public and the fans (Fan Boost, autographs sessions etc ...) They will try to be much much fan-friendly than F1.

Well all the FE circuits have so far been quite short, so potentially Monaco could shorten the circuit. Turning right a Ste Devote, down the ramp at Tabac and turn right again to the swimming pool.

Not sure if it's doable but shorter version could be if they turn right to Avenue John F. Kennedy and then have hairpin where the Grand Prix Circuit chicane is. Then drive the rest of GP circuit - about 1,7 kilometres in total.

That's what I was thinking too. The rally course hairpin is too tight for race cars so a hairpin at the chicane would give some extra room.

Wondering if this could possibly be the route, or whether they'd use the full GP circuit - http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6432576
