 SPEED
Channel will again be home to Formula One racing in the United
States, announcing it has reached an agreement to air live
practice, qualifying and race coverage for nearly the entire
17-race Grand Prix schedule in 2002.
"Formula One racing is an important part of
SPEED Channel's core programming," said network President Jim
Liberatore. "Having just moved past the 50-million household
mark, I think it is important that we continue to demonstrate
a commitment to being the premier television destination for
all motor sports fans, and our F1 package certainly supports
that philosophy."
Veteran broadcaster Rick DeBruhl will lead the cast of SPEED
Channel on-air talent, calling play-by-play, with analysis
from former F1 driver David Hobbs and former F1 mechanic Steve
Matchett. Peter Windsor will provide reporting from the
paddock.
SPEED Channel's Formula One season kicks off Thursday, Feb. 28
with practice from the Grand Prix of Australia at 9 p.m. (ET).
SPEED Channel will provide live race coverage of 16 of the 17
events, with enhanced coverage of the United States Grand
Prix. Most races will be replayed on same-day tape at 10 p.m.
(ET) -- check local listings.
