Oh god, simply!

Anyway the politics of it all are pretty set in stone, nothing we can do, but theres 2 petitions to sign.

1, addressed to Dorna for being so stupid, essentially

and 2, to the beeb, to get the eurosport team to do the commentary and provide all the coverage we know and love.

Sign them both, and pass it on!

why is it when something is sooo good, it gets axed from our tellys. esports moto gp weekend coverage has enthralled me every other sunday morning for the last 12, 13 maybe even more, years and now we have to deal with charlie cox again... the 1998 btcc season was made annoying by his wisecracks.. has julian and toby been lost to the masses?

It's because of the Dorna. Also in Germany the rights go to DSF. They wanted special deals for every country. I think it's stupid.

In Sweden it has just been announced that there will be a new channel Viasat Motors that will shown MotoGP next year. Unfortunately I don´t yet now if they will have the same commentators as Esport, essential for the experience.

To top this off, Viasat that owns F1 in Sweden, will move live coverage for the last races of this year to this new channel!! So I will only get a rerun some hours afterwards... There must be a rule that to be able to rise to a TVchannelpower an IQ below 80 is not only needed, it´s a must....

I despair at the decision to have BBC coverage because I'll miss the current presenters and the time just won't be given to the sport as we've been used to (although I'll be pleased to be free of the advertising breaks!).  It's the end of an era. 



I've been to the sites intending to sign the petitions, but I haven't because they're so badly presented - I'd be more inclined to sign if they were coherent and not riddled with errors...

Its about time the beeb spent our money on something worth watching, im sick of how to rebuild ramshackled barns,and buy properties in spain.!!



But will they show all the qualfying, and repeat the race throughought the week incase we are doing something else on Sunday??? I think not!

 

There is a forum on the BBC website called 606 (!! I dont know why), so join up there and have a say what you think about the Euro comms versus Charlie Cox and Suzi Perry. The more the merrier.
