kinda like you...minus .....

I will sign on with MotoGP anyway as I have now lost live FPs, warm-up, and the 125 and 250 races but my only hope now is that MotoGP signed on Ryder&Moody for their web broadcasts.

Technically, if all sessions are made available without commercial interruption, it will be a benefit for the fans, even if you have to pay more to get a motogp.com subscription.

We shall see.

Good point. I was thinking in old media terms, in keeping with my relative antiquity.

I was giving dorna some credit, in that going with a big terrestrial broadcaster might genuinely have some prospect of widening the exposure of the sport provided motogp is not buried in the schedule. As you imply, perhaps they are acting mainly or wholly in what they perceive as their own commercial interest, in that a sub-standard TV coverage will drive more people to buy the motogp.com package which is probably what has the biggest margin for dorna.

Well the word on the street is that the commentary team is a dead issue. However if you want better (i.e more) coverage you've got to shout about it through the BBC website. & When I say shout I mean more than one email, & preferably in rational plain English.
