I very seriously doubt that many people who are not involved or are on the 
periphery of endurance in the US bothered to watch a webcast of a Dubai 
broadcast that was very difficult to watch until about midnight EST. Who 
**knew** about this broadcast [with the exception of those privy to 
endurance.net]??

There may be a greater awareness of the race via the USEF report, but there 
is no direct link to any completion detail from there.

The least of my concerns would be that the WEC turned people off from US 
endurance riding.
