Eurosport

Just been on the Moto GP web site and it says on there that eurosport wont be covering Moto GP next year what a pile of poo that is I am sure the BBC wont cover warm up qualifying and race for all classes like eurosport. Unless they put it on the red button.

Used to love it when Eurosport had the F1, thats going back a few years now, early 90s till maybe 95.
You'd get the morning practice on the Friday (Thur if it was Monaco) then the 1st Qual in the afternoon. Saturday would be the same, practice and 2nd Qual, and on the Sunday you'd get the warm-up and possibly the race.
Couple of years back before ITV 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8... etc you were lucky if you got to see a live race, god forbid it clashed with 6pm primetime viewing, what would people do without Lisa Riley & You've been framed!!

The Beeb are planning on doing a digital station dedicated to sport, and one for films, so theres the posibility it'll appear on that. Im not a Bike person, but as mentioned above ive been through it with F1 where Eurosports cant pay the fee's demanded so the viewer misses out, and the BBC or whoever have other junk they'd rather show instead than pay for the license to show that.

Also, ITV now show the various F1 practice sessions over the internet on their website, the BBC have been showing the footie on their site, so thats another possible angle... not quite the same sitting round the PC for it, guess it depends if its just you watching it or half the family.
