Seems like the people from the lowlands will have to put up with Eurosport during the Giro... No more giro on Sporza/NOS

You could get the Eurosport player for one month just for the Giro (that would be €7 i think). They'll probably also have a stream with no ads and no commentary.Netserk said:Well, not everyone has Eurosport... and the adds really bothers me

They got the pan european (+Australia) exclusive of all RCS races until 2020.RedheadDane said:I'm a bit sad that Eurosport apparently has got exclusive rights to the Giro. I much prefer the commentating on Danish TV2...
Bit of a question for the people with Player. Does anyone know who commentated the CEGRR? I thought they were pretty good, except for referring to Rolf Sørensen as the older brother of Nicki Sørensen, and continuously referring to Sergio and Sebastian Henao as the Henao brothers. But I guess that's just one of those things commentators will never get right.
http://corporate.eurosport.com/news-detail/?id=6850The new four-year extension offers more exclusivity* to Eurosport in Europe and Australia, as well as including a wide range of additional races available on Eurosport and the Eurosport Player. The new races now available exclusively include the six Flanders Classics single-stage races - including the iconic World Tour race Gent-Wevelgem - Tour of Romandie, Tour of Britain, Tour of Utah and Tour of Alberta.

Just further on that, Matt Rendell and Rob Hayles are doing the international English speaking commentary for any markets picking up the race (and also for online highlights) but British Eurosport do not use this feed.
