Do any of you know which network is carrying MotoGP in America? Last season I suffered through SpeedTV just to watch the races. We gave up catching the broadcast because of the indepth coverage through the MotoGP website.

But, if someone knows who is covering it?

Also, for British members: on which BBC channel does the MotoGP get covered? I would like to see I can find a cable/satalite provider that gave me access to real coverage.

Thanks!

I think the only coverage in the US and Canada is SpeedTV and I don't imagine they will do anything about improving their coverage. If you're a real fan, getting a motogp.com subscription is the only way to go.

All of America (when not complaining about politics) can do is talk about The Superbowl. Being one who doesn't follow "football" at all, I tend to get assed out of alot of small talk around the office.

Part of me hates the feeble US fan base, but part of me hopes most of America tunes elsewhere. Otherwise McDonald's and walmart ad (https://www.weeklyads2.com/walmart/) will come waving bundles of cash to gain sponsorship. We may have to go to bike bars where like minded MotoGP fans get together to watch.

BBC shows MotoGP as part of BBC Grandstand on BBC 2, its only the MotoGP race, live for races in Europe, delayed for races in Asia and Australia

If you are able to get European TV channels then get Eurosport. It has all the bike racing you will ever want

Yesterday someone came and offered me subscription TV to enable me watching more channel TV worldwide.

There will be start up charge and advance monthly charge for standard channels coverage and additional charge for more package such as: movie package, sport package etc.

I wonder will i be able to watch the race live from channels like Eurosport and Star TV? another friend told me that the sport channel broadcast main motorsport live and only highlight of the rest race.

I'd start with subscription, but if it only gives highlight i think the start-up charge would become unworthed

yeah,TEN Sports gives very good motoGP coverage,the superbikes isn't very good but i am not complaining cause the action more than makes up for the coverage :up: and Star Sports also gives the feed for the motoGP class for us ...

you wouldn't want to see Ten Sports,too much Cricket...i'd suggest you go for the Star TV connection from the South East Asian Region or Eurosport

Star sport seems would be my choice, i need only put additional mini decoder cheaper than subscribtion TV to get connected to Sart TV, unluckily it doesn't cover Eurosport. No more start up and monthly charge :laugh:

We follow Loris and Rossi mostly. There is a soft spot in our hearts for the underdogs like Marco, Dani, Vermulen, Hopper, Stoner, and Edwards. What can you do when you race in the Rossi era?
