'We're doomed, Mr. Mainwaring, we're doomed...........'

Simmi · 9 Mar 2011, 09:33 (Ref:2842580)

Crap. That's scuppered my plans slightly.

Le Vieux · 9 Mar 2011, 10:43 (Ref:2842618)

It rather looks as though the people running Kangaroo TV are a load of wallabies.

**Aysedasi** · 9 Mar 2011, 16:02 (Ref:2842776)

I guess the F1 tunnel vision mentality has struck again.....

maximus · 9 Mar 2011, 21:00 (Ref:2842981)

Wow don't write it off yet! They still are supplying NASCAR and that isn't on the site. It has been very popular at Le Mans by many accounts so I find it odd that they would suddenly stop supplying an event that is very likely making them money? Lets wait for an official response.

Edit: Their Twitter mentions supplying Le Mans and what people used to know it as at the race before the re-branding in a couple of responses so it could still be there? Twitter

(Of course if they have stopped supporting Le Mans that would be a huge travesty!)

maximus · 9 Mar 2011, 21:34 (Ref:2843003)

Following up my post I've sent them a message on Twitter asking if there is a service this year.

Simmi · 9 Mar 2011, 22:13 (Ref:2843030)

Good idea. I just did the same so we'll see what they say.

**Aysedasi** · 10 Mar 2011, 08:28 (Ref:2843215)

Thanks very much maximus

The Badger · 10 Mar 2011, 13:36 (Ref:2843394)

I havent gotten a reply from Mark Peltier yet either ..... he was the rep who was on this site last year .

Shame if it isnt available this year .

**Adam43** · 10 Mar 2011, 20:35 (Ref:2843558)

I have just got an email. It is now called FanVision. Terrible name, but I'll still be getting it. It looks like it might be a better devise too. However there is no mention of Le Mans yet...

The Badger · 11 Mar 2011, 06:47 (Ref:2843758)

Yeah , i wrote them an email and got the same as you got , above .

Doesnt look like there will be a Le Mans event on their schedule ..... shame !!!

**Aysedasi** · 11 Mar 2011, 08:30 (Ref:2843805)

If that's the case, I lose interest completely..........

NelisB · 11 Mar 2011, 08:47 (Ref:2843817)

Just saw this on their twitter: "@The_Maximus @RichardSimpson1 No word for Le Mans yet, hope to announce yes or no very soon! Will update asap!"

I suspect that email is a marketing mailshot which has been sent out by coincidence just after your email to them. I say that, because I received it too, but have made no attempt to contact them.

Thanks for posting that. So, whilst many of us have been sitting here hoping they will announce the promised Arnage/Mulsanne enclosure coverage for 2011, we are now wondering if there'll be any coverage at all. Fingers crossed then.

**Aysedasi** · 11 Mar 2011, 10:30 (Ref:2843862)

It would be seriously disappointing after a slow year in 09 and what appeared to be good business in 10 for Le Mans to be dropped.

I also enjoyed it in 2008 when I went. I would be massivly disappointed if they don't have the tv for 2011. It gives so much more information when watching the race.

maximus · 11 Mar 2011, 20:14 (Ref:2844190)

I was just about to post that I had a reply but NelisB quoted the response I got anyway.

I hope there is some good news soon.

Haha yes that would be me. Better then a flat no. Will cross fingers.

GT6 · 15 Mar 2011, 17:17 (Ref:2846333)

someone on another forum has had this reply

"I unfortunately cannot confirm yet whether we will be at Le Mans this year or not. We are working on it and we really want to be there! I’ve filed your email for follow-up when we get the final word and I will let you know as soon as possible."

so there is still hope they will be at Le Mans this year

GT6 · 18 Mar 2011, 19:28 (Ref:2848355)

They are now saying an announcement will be made in April about Le mans

maximus · 18 Mar 2011, 19:44 (Ref:2848391)

Thanks for the update mate.

Simmi · 18 Mar 2011, 19:54 (Ref:2848416)

Yeah better to have the announcement pushed back then for them to say no now. They are obviously trying to see if they can sort something.

GT6 · 18 Mar 2011, 20:02 (Ref:2848437)

They are at least talking to the ACO, appears the change of ownership caused a few problems

LemansmobileTV · 22 Mar 2011, 20:26 (Ref:2851465)

Hi everyone,

As always thanks for your interest in FanVision(formerly Kangaroo TV) at Le Mans. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to announce just yet, but I'm hopeful I'll have some good news for you within a week or two.

I will keep you posted
