The live and on-demand video coverage Versus is offering of the entire race this year is one of the most popular areas of its site. It has delivered more than 10 million videos through July 19, nearly doubling the 6.5 million videos it delivered last year, and more than tripling its total video delivery count in 2007, Bradshaw said.  more
