It is coverage. It is not live coverage though.RedheadDane said:YouTube live counts as ****** as well.
Recaps is not coverage.
Logic-is-your-friend said:According to the preview on Feltet, the race also wants to promote local culture & tourism, iirc. But it seems like TV coverage is somewhat meager. Especially frustrating during the "Queen Stage", when only the final climb will be televized, according to the official profile at least.
I also have no idea if the race will be broadcast live on tv, and if so, where. I see Eurosport 2 is showing recaps of 30 minutes late at night (around/before midnight). I see PMG has the stages set to go live on their youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCuNpZUFKAaQIlyLt5-bp_g so there's that at least.
I'll add that to the OP.
they used to have some stuff a couple of years ago, like Tour Down Under, for example (and also one of the Swiss races, I think). But it must be the first time in a while, yeahNirvana said:The surprising thing is that here the race will be on Sky Sport Arena (bar stage 3 on Sky Sport 1), it's the first time that Sky has a cycling race if we exclude multi sports events like the recent European Games.
Tour Down Under and Tour de Suisse and Romandie were on Bike Channel here until 2017 then after the financial problems of Bike Channel the TDU totally disappeared from TV (along with a bunch of other races that used to be on Bike Channel) whereas Romandie and Suisse went to Eurosport.search said:they used to have some stuff a couple of years ago, like Tour Down Under, for example (and also one of the Swiss races, I think).

ES will air the race in an hour, but only for 30 mins. This is puzzling.Logic-is-your-friend said:Nope, not live unfortunately. The countdown on their website was clearly all sorts of wrong.
yes. And before that, they (or parts of them) were on Sky SportsNirvana said:Tour Down Under and Tour de Suisse and Romandie were on Bike Channel here until 2017 then after the financial problems of Bike Channel the TDU totally disappeared from TV (along with a bunch of other races that used to be on Bike Channel) whereas Romandie and Suisse went to Eurosport.search said:they used to have some stuff a couple of years ago, like Tour Down Under, for example (and also one of the Swiss races, I think).

Stage 1 hasn't been raced yet. The one that was raced last evening was a pre-race criterium.
search said:it's a bit irritating to be honest, as the race organisation called it "Stage 1" indeed (and starts the "real" race with Stage 2 today), but obviously the UCI does not agree.
I guess the background is, that they initially wanted to start the race with the crit stage (as a normal part of the race) but didn't realize early enough that stages like that are not allowed
