tour of qatar 2013 tv coverage

Tour of Qatar time

no eurosport coverage thou as ASO had falling out with organisers which is pity. Crosswinds every day every stage hard flat racing for the week, well worth eye on results as form here tends to build into classics season.

Anyone know who's broadcasting this? Evil Sky Sports had Tour down Under so I didn't see that but I watched Qatar on Eurosport last year IIRC.
And while we're at it...will Eurosport have the rest of the early season action?

@ Beasty It's all well and good bringing all these queries into one place but we've no answers!!
Does anyone know what eurosports schedule is like like for the early season races? I'm assuming they have the GT's.

Beasty

You've an answer to your main question;)

Looks like there is nothing definitive out there to answer the other - thought of trying to contact Europsort?

I understand that the problem was only with Qatar and normal service will resume with the Tour of Oman.

Schedule for the next few weeks is here:

Oman and Algrave will be a nice break from Corrie and Eastenders
Thanks VK

It claims to have Tour of Qatar Live there....I couldn't find it dead or live on ES all week, maybe I'm missing something here!

Chips Lovell

I'd say it was published before the difficulties with the Tour of Qatar.

I had set the recorder for the first two stages, then went to set to record subsequent stages a few days later and I see that instead of the tour of Qatar, I'm recording the South Africa Cup or some such £(*&!.

Isn't this a glorified training camp? Did I miss something?

its a key tune up for the classics, normally the fast paced racing in the winds makes for great time in saddle, but probably easiest qatar in memory one hard day of winds.
