Race of champions 2012

[tommy2k8]

Will this year's Race of Champion be shown on Sky or terrestrial TV? If so, what are the times?

[AndyL]

It's on Motors TV, 1PM 15th and 16th December. With, it appears, almost continuous repeats for the next week as presumably Motors TV don't have too much else to show in December! Programme title is "Roc Bangkok".

Whos in the line up this year?

Vettel and Schumacher will be in it again, trying to win the 6th straight Nations title. Come to think of it - this could be the final time to see Schumacher in a competetive race. :(

Schumi has said he'll compete next year as well if he stays fit, to make it a 7th time :)

I've never seen it advertised on terrestrial TV but could be wrong? If they can't be bothered to put it on a terrestrial channel, I can't be bothered to watch.

The race ist broadcasted by HQ livestream on the ROC website as well and without Ad breaks.

And in the least surprising news of the year - Germany wins the Nations Cup a sixth time on the trot :D

God, is this what we're down to discussing 'til March. Shoot me now. What'd i miss? Schumacher letting Vettel through for another win?

Erm, you don't know much about the RoC do you?

The individual competition is currently running. The team competition was yesterday. Schumacher and Vettel for Team Germany won it a 6th time on the trot against Team France with last years individual champion Seb Ogier and Mr. Crash himself - Romain Grosjean.

Just because he decided to be a window-licking idiot this year, doesn't mean he's slow.

I hadn't noticed this thread until this morning otherwise I'd have posted my usual advice: record it and watch on catch-up as the coverage is dire and disjointed. Motors TV, bless them, seem to have a budget of about £75 to cover this, but at least it's on.
