I started watching the MotoGp on the beeb and I have to agree the commentary was awfull.After about four laps,I swithed over to Eurosport.And what is it about the beeb not showing the races widescreen?
Next up,the BSB.
My wife recorded the ITV show as I was out on a rideout.What can I say?The one hour show was utter rubbish.We have been spoilt in the past with Sky's mega coverage.Lets face it.BSB was shown on BBC2 and they fooked it,C4 fooked it,and now ITV.I guess with several Sky Sports channels available they have more space to put on a big show.I did watch some of Skys highlights show later in the evening and it felt like normal service had been resumed.
In a nutshell,
Want to watch MotoGP,WSB,Moto X,Trials? Watch it on Eurosport.
BSB,Speedway? Sky Sports.
AMA,Supermoto? Motors TV.

Oh yeah,forgot to mention,Sky is repeating all the BSB action today,(Mon 10th) on SS3 midday and SS2 6pm.

I agree with all of the above, ITV camera work and commentary is crap.............that Nuttley bloke doesn't even know who is on what bike.......how can he mention in one breath that Smart is in second place and then see someone go down in about 6h place on a Rizla S....i and then say to Witham was that Smart?
And that bird how irritating is she??

Back to Moto GP on Eurosport.............top guys who know their stuff, I know we have to put up with those bloody Suzuki adverts but still.......but at the end on the podium Toby Moody says well thats all from the Moto GP in the desert and the race was won by a Camel :lol:

At least itv are opening it to a wider audience. At a prime time aswell.

BSB on Sky is OK if you wanna line Rupe's pockets to the tune of £400 plus a year.

BSB on ITV is a step forward for the Sky "have nots" step backwards for the Sky "haves"

And yes I cannot be doing with Charlie Cox, or the daft Burd off ITV.

Ray.

Thought you might have been there John, we looked for you in Crescent Hospitality.

Was gonna go with the man, but he got a better offer to be "elsewhere".

I didn't time the first race, but I reckon ITV showed no more than about 8 minutes worth! Cracking coverage or what!

:o, I am suprised at you Dibble, well below the belt, just remember, I do not live far from Nelly`s, I think I saw your bike there the other day;):devil::frog:
