The cost of a live internet feed, taking images from 3-5 cameras back to a van, even without commentary, was a small fortune, many, many thousands. The kit required to stream it live is immense. I paid £1500 in additional bandwidth costs when I posted the video clips on my website for download after the first round of Motors. The cost of the bandwidth for live streaming alone? Immense, and that's without the cost of the equipment required to do it. I'm sure we'll consider it one day, but we're only just at the point of paying more to cover TV production costs. I do think it's a possibility, but it's many years away... unless we could get a major sponsor to fund it. It's difficult enough to get major sponsorship for TV coverage.
