BBC 'Red Button' and i-player.................HELP!!

[Yoda.]

How does this (bd) work...I am with Sky. If I press the red button (when on a BBC channel) nowhere can I find a motogp schedule.
My other half is with Virgin and we have the same problem with the red button.

I know i-player is used for watching previously aired programmes (as I've managed to use it before)...but am I to expect this weekends motogp coverage to be shown 'live' on i-player.

As you may have guessed I am clueless & in need of urgent technical know-how

On Virgin hit the red button, then select Sport Multiscreen
That takes you to the red button sport channel.
7 then takes you to the shedule, MotoGP qualifying is on 8-11 tonight.

I'm guessing it'll be similar on Sky as once you're in to the red button you should be seeing stuff done by BBC not by Sky or Virgin

on the sky box it works like this.
bbc 1
red button
then 3001 press select
that takes you to the sport menu.
then press the number that is moto gp.

Why watch MotoGP on the Beeb, when it's on Eurosport with Toby Moody and Julian Ryder doing their excellent commentary?
