I am not so sure if it is going to be earth-warming or labour legislation that will eventually succeed to bring everything to a standstill?
The Swedish Rally television coverage is now under threat because North One Sport – the defunct company’s jobless employees have now decided that they have to be employed by Eurosport who is taking over the WRC promotions.
Well, it is not actually the employees but rather some European law that has been spotted by a labour lawyer who saw an opportunity to make money, or by an employee that should have been fired anyway?
Why people can not look at all the aspects of certain decisions and anticipate the problems I will never know – but then have we not got our own experience regarding lack of any foresight and anticipation whatsoever?
At one point, it appeared that talks between the French-based broadcaster and WRC officials had broken down completely, but subsequent reports claimed that the situation wasn't quite as bleak as first thought, with both sides still keen to make something happen for the good of the sport. Speculation suggests that legislation governing the protection of employees in the event of a takeover may be causing an unforeseen headache for both parties, and forcing the negotiations to slow to a crawl as lawyers determine whether Eurosport Events taking over from NOS - and North One Television - requires the latter's employees, made redundant when the FIA cancelled its contract, to be found positions at the former.
While Rally Sweden works with the FIA on arranging potential alternatives to ensure the event receives some television coverage, the report suggests that it may still be possible for Eurosport to act as broadcaster until such time as the legal aspects regarding employees are sorted out.
Amen and so on.........
