Dubai Sport satellite channel schedule is in Arabic at its site. Does anyone know about their motorsport coverage? Last Saturday, I watched programme Motorsopt Mundial at 16.00 UTC.

Can someone of Arabic speaking members inform about motorsport programmes on this channel?

And OT: does it broadcast cricket? I love this game, but it's absolutely unknown here in Russia.

if you are in dubai and get star sports you shouldnt have any trouble getting live F1 coverage, if that is what you are meaning to ask ... ive been out of touch with that side of the world for a while so i might be wrong, but to my knowledge, star was still covering F1 live last season. (i believe tensports covered some races as well).

I just checked out the site, and even without having to do so, ive always known that they dont broadcast Formula 1 races.

If anything, they show a summary of every race's result, nothing more but ofcourse the random news articles about technology and progress from time to time just like u saw on that show.

Dont know about cricket either as im not a follower of that sport, but i doubt they play the games on tv live too as they are really long games.
I watch F1 races on ART Sports 2, and you can do the same if you go to most hotel pubs where lots of fans go there to watch them.

Thank you. I don't need Formula One coverage on this channel, but they have some useful programmes like Motorsport Mundial, Trans World Sport and may be others. Also, I think, they must have motor racing from their new Dubai circuit.

Here's yesterday's schedule:



From 12.30 to 13.20 GMT they had Trans World Sport including feature on top Indian rally driver.

Do Arabic words in the schedule mean Trans World Sport?

Here's today's schedule:



Please translate them both.

I learned that there would be first Formula BMW Asia race in Dubai on March 25 too late and didn't try to monitor the channel. But they had Formula 2000 powerboat race that day. Here's the shcedule:



I found powerboat race at 12.56 GMT, and it lasted until about 13.20. But the schedule has different time slots. What does it have for 12.05 and 13.00 GMT? And does it have Bormula BMW race?
