Moto GP on ITV 4


Just watched yesterdays race on ITV4, you know the race that wasn't going to be on anywhere but BTonline. Well I for one am glad that I didn't sign up for £12 a month contract. Good race but rubbish TV coverage and even worse commentary, bike were mostly filmed from a considerable distance and no real involvement with the racing.

Maybe it was because it was a night race so we will see how the next one looks but it just highlights how good the BBC coverage was.

Totally agree to all those pointssmile As a DOCTOR fan I hope he gives us some more races like that but it worries me still where he qualified and his team mate probably won't throw it down the road again so maybe a different story next race, only time will tellsmile

 I do believe the Internet hold many treasures...............

I cannot vouch for the quality as I have certainly not used this website, I merely made use of a well known search engine smile

 I watched all three races on wiziwig - took a while to suss out that you need to get rid of the many pop-ups before you can see anything, but then ran a vga cable to the TV and watched in on there. Not the same picture quality as if I had had BT Sport on as a subscription but not bad. Keith Heuwen however spoils it - almost as bad as Charlie Cox from the BBC last year. Julian Ryder is okay but he was forced to take a back seat and I missed the technical input from Neil Spalding. The ITV4 programme was just a rehash of the BT Sport feature - no interviews which is a shame.

Can't get ITV4 on terrestial television in the Highlands, or ITV3, 5*, 5USA etc.  I'm back to reading MCN now, no moving pictures unless you wave it in your face but that makes it hard to read.

Just watched it.The bloke with the deep voice knows what he's on about but the other one sounds like a right argumentative topper of a tw@t.
BT sport is free if you have BT internet. I've never been happy with my internet since I moved house . So the BT deal was done as the comms industry will send you around the houses if you have a problem blaming any company but themselves. Only have to deal with one company now.
So now I have 14M on a speed test as opposed to less than 1M

Great thanks for the heads up, nostalgic it may be but I still want rossi to win but 2nd is a good start. No one would bet against O'sullivan for being long in the tooth.
