not sure if there is another Dakar post for 2015 but couldn't find it...

What an absolute waste of time...:(
Really i might as well go and read about the days results on the internet and it would be more exciting than watching the coverage on DSTV.

SHOW ME THE RACING
DO NOT REPEAT THE PREVIOUS DAYS STUFF ON TODAY'S PROGRAMME

4/5 years ago the coverage was brilliant, you actually got to see the racing and got to "experience" the Dakar.

These days they repeat everything they said the day before, rush through everything to give you the results and fill the rest of the time on the history of the Dakar.

Okay i think i have had my rant

SHOW ME THE RACING

okay finished now...

Cant remember the reason they summarise it the way they do but also wish it was more live then a couple seconds highlights.

C'mon you can't expect all that, for a mere R700+ to Monochioce :whistling:

You can watch the highlights on the Dakar App or website. It is literally the same thing they showed on DStv last year without the commercials. It is also on DailyMotion. Fsck DStv

Years ago they had a 2 - 3 hours running coverage live. It's now just a 1 hour highlights show with hardly any racing. I don't watch it no more. Unfortunately the Isle of Man TT is starting to do the same. You want to watch it you need to get there it seems...
