[A500leroy]

MOTOGP live on the main ITV channel from 12;30pm....

Itvs experiment to see if its worth bidding for the rights.

The problem with that experiment is all the people who really want to watch it already use alternative methods.

They'll already know how many pay to watch it. As for the "alternatives", they'll mostly tune in for a reliable feed, along with many others who currently don't watch? Plus they value numbers over the really wants.

Is it with their own presenters and commentary, or with Suzi Perry and co from BT Sport?

Well, BT sport is loads of stuff, mostly football I assume. Unless somehow BT Sport give the number viewing MotoGP separately, which wouldn't be in their interest if potentially competing for licencing.

Hope you are right though.

I really REALLY resent paying £25 a month for just MotoGP.

I currently watch it through streams dodging pop ups for "milfs near me". Would love it to be on free to air telly in the future.

I won't ever pay BT anything so they can just hand it over to the Premier League.

[Stan the Bat]

All three races ( Moto 3, Moto2 and GP) are always available on torrents in HD within an hour or so of the races finishing.

MotoGP videopass is a lot cheaper than BT if you're not interested in everything else you get with BT.

I cancelled BT Sport due to a house move, so streamed the last race on some Australian HD channel. Quality was excellent & I quite liked the presenters - proper no nonsense, one bloke commenting from a nice looking bar, which I think had to do with it being in the middle of the night down under!

I tried it thanks, no luck, no milfs near me.

The ITV commentators must be the worst I’ve ever listened to, had to mute the tv.

[A500leroy]

Perfectly acceptable job by ITV, if they got a full seasons rights id like to hear Whit doing the comms
