I'm sorry, but that's a really bad poll.

When I was reading question three I had flashbacks of taking the SAT. Also, on question three, I would've liked a "run all three classes (GT1, GT2 and GT3) together" option.

They didn't have enough options for some of the questions like on question 5. I think that the tv coverage is fine, the races aren't too long and there aren't too many slow gentleman drivers IMO. The tv coverage isn't as good as F1, but it's MUCH better than the WRC these days.

BTW.. For tv coverage, are they talking about the European sports car racing or the ALMS? I think that the ALMS coverage is fine. I would like to see a bit more European sports car coverage though. The only time I see European sports car coverage is when Speed ocassionally shows a recap type show of the season.

Also, I would've liked an "all of the above" option for question 9.

European TV of the races. From what I have gathered from a few overseas freinds they think it is great.

ALMS and LMS are usually live if there are no scheduling conflicts, otherwise, same day, full, ALMS coverage, and 3 hour LMS highlights.

Le Mans, every session and scrutineering live.

1 hour FIA GT Highlights
1 hour FIA GT3 Highlights


Bravo/Player

Live coverage of FIA GT, plus highlights during the week.

Study / Poll results

http://www.racingworld.it/fiagt/noti...?idtitolo=2668

International results:

1) Select your favorite Championship (Sports and GT):


2) What is your favorite format (duration) for these races ?


3) SRO/FIA wants to create a World GT1 Championship, with the GT2 class only for a European Champ and GT3 class for all national Champs. What doy you think about this?


4) In your opinion, which is the best thing in GT/Sportscar racing?


5) What is the main weakness of Sport/GT Championships ?


6) Which of this events have u been to, at least one time (if more than one of these, please indicate the one u liked more):


7) Question 7 was for Italians only

8) In 2007 Peugeot will join Audi in racing using a Diesel engine. Do u think it's good or bad for sportscar racing?


9) What do you think about the 2010 ACO technical regulations, whose allow only closed coupes in P1 class ?


10) The Grand-Am championship, despite full grids, still doesn't have the same fan base of ALMS. Why in your opinion?
