Giro d’Italia

Filed under: Road racing, Live Events, ITV, Eurosport, Coverage — MJ Ray @ 10:58-06:00

Grand Tour Time! The first one of 2010 kicks off. As you’d expect, the Tour of Italy starts anywhere except Italy: this year it’s Amsterdam.

Coverage is where you’d expect: Rai Tre daily from 1515 CET, with preview before that, aftershow after it and highlights later on Rai Sport Pìu, both free-to-air at 13e. See Rai Teletext’s sport page for exact details.

It’s also on Eurosport at 19e if you prefer it in German or that’s where your dish is pointing.

Sadly, once again, it seems that none of the free-to-air French or English channels are showing the Giro. Come on itv4 - home of cycling, but only one grand tour?

  1. Rai Tre seemed to be encrypted yesterday. Is that going to happen every day?

    Eurosport’s coverage is about as good as usual, but they were let down at one point by incorrect captions from the host broadcaster.
