Anyone who was annoyed by the football commentators at the Euro will have the opportunity to watch pure sport during the Olympic Games: In addition to the two programs taken over from SF two, "Peking aktuell" and "Peking lounge", HD suisse will also broadcast uncommented broadcasts. During the day, "image-attractive sports" can be seen, according to SF. These include the athletics finals, sailing, swimming and basketball. Up to 17 hours of live sport are shown daily on HD suisse. Because the broadcasts are uncommented for logistical and financial reasons, SF refers to them as "Beijing View", analogous to the helicopter flyover program "Swiss View". The usual information is shown, such as the start lists, split times, results and the names of the competitors. The live competition broadcasts on HD Suisse will begin between 01:20 and 04:00 in the night and end at around 18:00 due to the international time difference for the Swiss audience. The offer on HD Suisse complements the coverage on SF zwei. In total, the two channels will show over 30 hours of live broadcasts from Beijing every day.
