USA TV broadcast: Olympic Channel

Wondering if we'll get TV coverage in the US for 2023 since the Olympic Channel shut down 09/30/2022. It's still listed on the Dakar site as the US event broadcaster.

Since we don't have a US broadcast any more, I've only been able to find it on YouTube. You can find daily "extended highlights" episodes (and the Classic event too)

Pretty fun the last few days. Rooting for Loeb for sure.
