Sky to have Exclusive rights from 2014

The interesting bit in this story is that Sky Italia did not outbid anybody, but it was Mediaset (who have uninterruptedly purchased the MotoGP rights for Italy since 2002) who gave up on Dorna's proposal and opted for investing in the WSBK rights instead...

Here goes it may be a bit long but its a piece of pi$$ to do very easy



DONT FORGET most channels are in there native language



this is for a small outlay to get free tv.you can get box's with a viewing card slot buy a foreign card for about £70 for the year and get sports footy etc with english commentary the championship etc



you can get the 4or5 main satellites around europe easy with a sky dish there cheap on markets car boots

just make sure its complete LNB on the arm + fittings etc



13,0e hotbird middle east europe italian tv etc

19.2e astra1 mainly german tv

28,2e astra2 thats uk freetv on sky freesat etc

5.0w satellite

these sats have very strong signals adjust the dish until you get a picture fine tune it your done



Kits examples

my dish is only 4ft high it has a clear line of sight to the sky/satellites it doesn't need to be high up

if you can stick it in the garden on a post/fence/wall/shed



i can adjust it to get the satellites i want to watch









before you get a box make sure you can get a signal from the satellites check

Dishpointer site

http://www.dishpointer.com/

to make sure no walls/trees are in the way of you pointing the dish at the satellites

input you postcode select the satellite eg 19.2e drag the green symbol to your property

put it where you want the dish to go make sure the green line isnt pointing at a tree wall etc



on 19.2E YOU Get Sport1 a German sports channel they show motogp FP Sessions and the Races

and Eurosport international not Brit Eurosport

Eurosport international shows very similair stuff to brit eurosport wsbk.winter sports. tennis.tour de france.football etc

plus on 19.2e you get German public tv they show sports football Boxing PDC Darts and more THAT you pay for in the uk

I Watch it all free

(mute the tv put radio5 on for english commentary)

the Germans are more liberal about softcore .... on tv

Italian TV i dont know much about it

is mediasat a public broadcaster like the BBC Or is motogp wsbk on pay TV only in Italy ?

I keep thinking we'll gradually go towards a merge of the two series. They are too similar, and a world in recession cannot really afford two. I only hope they keep the best name for the unified series: World Superbike has always been the best name, by miles -- MotoGP (as a name) sucks big time.

I agree, always thought the moto part was duff . Did they have to make some deal with bernie?
