Hey guys and gals, this might not quite be on topic but this may affect or be of intrest to many of you.
As for one I am a mad motorsport fan of all forms of motorsport and I beleive that there is a need for a dedicated motorsport channel here in New Zealand. I for one get pissed of when I want to watch super bikes and F1, and find that there are on at the same time.
Description/History:
Motorsport in New Zealand has a huge fan base, but is considered to be 'second fiddle' to most other sports such as Rugby, Cricket and Netball. Even though Motorsport was the 2nd most watch sport after rugby in New Zealand it still doesn't get the footage it deserves.
If Sky had a dedicated Motorsport channel then we would see an improvement in the quality of motorsport coverage in NZ and also a boost to the people competing in NZ and overseas.
Petition:
I call upon every red blooded male and motorsport mad female to sign this petition to ensure that we get a dedicated motorsport channel on television in New Zealand.
If enough people sign this petition then maybe the broadcasters will realise that it will be worthwhile to set up such a channel especially considering there is a wealth of content available world-wide.
