Description: Formula One has new owners, who want to expand and modernise the sport. So could it become truly global, and feature a race in Africa, the only continent without a Grand Prix. It's hard to think of a country as obsessed with one sport as India is with cricket. The game helps to give a country of 1.3 billion people an identity. Getting a ticket for a one day match when India are playing is for many impossible We go to Chennai and Kolkata to discover just how difficult it is. At the age of 63 Charles Eugster was tempted back to competitive rowing by the introduction of a category for the over 60s. He says he's not unique and everyone can enjoy a rewarding later life by following a similar regime, where exercise is a preventative measure and a treatment. The two Belgrade football clubs - Partizan and Red Star have great histories, but it's a different story today, and Partizan have been banned from European competition because of financial irregularities. Sportshour reports from Belgrade as both clubs continue to struggle in the post-Yugoslavia era.
