    Well for me they fecked with the formula by moving MGP to BBC with that noob "nightmare in a bubble car" and "one more time across the stripe" to commentate on, it's just about pallatable with Parrish. It was and still is a lot more informative on Eurosport with Toby, Julian and the other bloke whose name escapes me. If they have the highlights on Eurosport that's where my loyality stays. I just wish they'd stop fecking around with our sporting interests for the sake of money, viewing rights and big numbers and let us watch our sport on channels that we're already paying way over the odds for.

    would that be neil "spalders" spalding, like hearing his insight into tech adjustments
    its a pity we still dont have randy in the pits.they really messed up motogp over the years,
    as they say if it wasnt broke they shouldnt have tried to fix it.

    But it is not the BT or BBC to blame, it is Dorna - grabbing B'stard.

    Don't like Moody or Ryder. Neil Spalding is brilliant though. He could do the whole thing in my opinion.

    Having stuck with the hateful customer service mindset of BT over the years, more out of 'can'tbearsery' than anything else, I now find I'm about to be blessed with MGP and my beloved rugby union after losing it to ESPN a couple of years ago. So you can all come round to my place to watch it if you want.

    Spalding may know his stuff but why did he have the charisma by-pass.

    From what I've read BT Sport have exclusive rights so no MotoGP at all on Eurosport.

    Looks like I'll be trawling the Internet for a streaming website to watch it on some foreign channel next year.

    Don't forget MOTORS TV on Sky 447 for AMA racing plus other U.K. club racing.

    It'll be a shame not to have the GP but tbh, I prefer BSB anyway. I've just jinxed it now haven't I? :-/
