Default MOTO GP

Do you get this in Oz (presume so given you have a race at PI). If so do I need foxtel or something to get it? Do foxtel have something similar to Sky + where you can record?

If you remember from your UK days we have British Eurosport with excellent coverage or a Suzy Perry on the BBC bluffing her way through for 15 minutes before the race started (if you got it live without golf or cricket interupting). Would prefer excellent coverage of 125, 250 and GP.

For some reason the moto gp race on eurosport now shows 2 hours later and not live! Dont know why, but have to put up with that minger perry & two useless so called comentators on the beeb.

It is because the BBC were given sole rights to air everything live. We all went nuts because we like Toby, Julian and Randy so Dorna eventually gave in and said Eurosport can have everything live except the GP which must be recorded and shown after the BBC live coverage. It is a shame but by then we lost Randy as their decision was made so late on.....hence the reason why Toby and Julian don't commentate every weekend as they made prior arrangements.

Still don't know how Eurosport managed to show Qatar live but glad they did.

I only watch the recorded stuff after the BBC. Can't be watching Perry and the boooorrrriiiinnnnngggg coverage by the BBC commentators.

It was and it was good to see his big banner (pardon the expression!). Good also to see Colin Edwards up there and James Toseland with his well deserved 6th. Just not sure what's happening with Nicky Hayden and that Ducati.

I must take a solo stance here and defend Suzi Perry and BBC. Suzi is ding dong

I find the BBC excellent to watch. I have always preferred it over Eurosport. Anyway, well done Vale

I saw him win at Mugello a couple of years ago, and have tickets for Donnington in a few weeks time. It is staggering he is only 30 years old. A true legend.

When I was in Oz, (18 months ago) Moto GP was shown live on channel 10 (or 7 or possibly 9 - anyway I am drunk right now and point is it was on a free channel)

Foxtel show the Moto GP and WSBKs live. In addition if you have a TV with a HD tuner the new Channel 10 HD One channel has been showing Moto GP live too.

Suzi Perry is the business, she can bluff here way through anything for me.....

Come on Stoner...... wipe the smile of the little puffs face today as you know Rossi bats for the otherside with his little friend in tow....

Aye, it's on ONE tonight, shown live at 8.30pm.
I'll be settling down with my beer & popcorn to cheer the Doctor on.

Straight after they're showing the 250 races, then an Isle of Man TT preview, then the Australian Superbike champs. If you don't have a digital tuner, thats enough reason to buy one for just tonight!

OK, so reading up this thread I've seen it's not live and the race was yesterday. So I'm going to pretend I didn't just see the results, and wipe who won from my memory, so I can watch it later. It'll still be good to watch, as ever....
