So there should be some pretty decent HD pictures of this north american chipper.

The images from the Tour come from France Televisions, the French version of the BBC, and not ASO. Perhaps ASO is going to hire some of these guys but the production crew belong to the broadcaster, not ASO.

Sod all you toffs with your HD TVs

I thought the online coverage last year was great, except for the Amgen plugs every 10 minutes (and I don't mean cutting to shots of you-know-who).

The director is going to be the ASO guy - I wonder how many of the people France Television use are just contracted in.

I guess ASO's expertise is packaging it for a global audience

Any news on Eurosport HD being on Eurosport player? I've got a HD ready laptop and a subscription, so it would be cool if I could get the Tour of Cali, Roubaix and TdF in HD

They're hoping to turn a profit next year.
