Tour of Qatar....Problem

Eurosport have pulled the coverage, going to have to rely on the official site and UCI results page.....

This is going to get messy  14

At least its an ASO race and even if its not the fastest the ASO website is usually fairly comprehensive.

Al-Jazeera is showing the last hour of the ladies ToQ....it's a fair bet to say they'll do he same or better for the mens?

It was only brought to light yesterday, I found out via twitter.

Plus I find TV guides to be really poor at changing there schedules at short(ish) notice

not cool... I always enjoy seeing riders blown off by the wind in Qatar.

Lots of change to the start list too so my squad is pretty fluid at the moment.

Yeah, a subscription part of their site that doesn't work outside of their region....So even then its not watchable  39

I don't know what the ASO are playing out, still getting updates from Lloyd and it looks like its a no go, not even highlights  2

@GKam84 Unfortunately it won't be shown on Eurosport. You can view it for free online with the Al Jazeera website.

I'll call that bloke who's got all those Armstrong DVDs to shift, he has more than enough for each Fantasy Cycling player to have one apiece, we can watch Qatar but play some Phil and Paul seven-in-a-row commentary over it and pretend none of this ever happened...

My Qatar problem is team selection. The TTT is putting a slight spanner in the works.

No sign of any Garmin riders in the start list on the Fantasy game. Are they giving it a miss??

Yeah, its not a world tour race so not all the top teams are there. Only a few get an invite.

So everywhere I look it says its currently 1.45 in Qatar, and the stage started at 12.35, yet I cant find any info on how the race is going, official site showing nothing.

Its like trying to draw blood from a stone!
