Much to my surprise given Eurosport's excellent cycling coverage this year, it appears that the Dauphine may not be live:

Has anybody read/heard anything about it and why? Of course they could just be doing highlights for the first couple of stages I gues....

    Looking at ES HD, it looks like the French Open is getting the day time action..

    Yeah.

    French Open is a bigger deal than the Dauphine to be honest.

    TdSuisse is a bigger deal than the Dauphine nowadays anyway.

    He's doing the Dauphine (as he normally does).

    they have highlights and with most of the riders just building form I can understand them putting the tennis on instead.

    Lets hope we get some decent highlights that are actually shown when they are scheduled to be shown.

    is tour de suisse live ?

    Yes and the Dauphine is live from Thursday, when they have to play one semi at a time, at Roland Garrote.
