I'd like to hear the rational too.
I suspect it's a budget thing, still ... only one hour???

It's true. Per OLN Vuelta Forum Moderator:
Sorry to disappoint.
I'll clarify.
There will be just one 1-hr. Vuelta show.
There will be no daily coverage.

Bill BrannonMaybe Discovery Channel will be carrying it. Certainly an opportunity
for them to step up. -

Coming off of record high ratings and they are worried about the cost????
If they gave the Vuelta some air time they could get some good ratings.
Maybe not as high as the TDF, but they wouldn't have to spend as much
to produce the show either.

Hopefully, this is just a negotiating tactic. I read somewhere in an
article about Phil and Paul that OLN resells their coverage to other English
speaking countries (New Zealand and Australia I believe). Maybe someone
down the line is trying to low-ball them. Maybe the Vuelta itself is trying
to up the fee.I know I'm grasping at straws here, but....
Make sure you let them know how you feel.

Al Trautwig's TdF salary. -
