Moto GP is awsome to watch being a rider it is poetry!!! F1 is like scale electrix.... far to strict and conservative especially as its meant to be the pinacle of automotive engineering.... may as well make it a class of all the same cars.... soon theyre regulate the colour of paint allowed to use because of some nonsense rubbish excuse....

Watch motoGP, BSB and all the classes 600 up.... Laverty, Marquez.... is Stoner coming back? Cant wait for more sideways elbow and knee down bike bashing action....

Crutchlow on a Ducati...

Can't wait!

As much as I've always found MotoGP a bit dull; too slow and they overtake too easily, I think it's a little unfair to suggest it's as boring as poetry.

Just watched the qualifying on BT Sport.
Who on earth employed that strident tart to act as the link? Kept coming out with the most banal utterances. as for the commentators, they were more interested in scoring points off each other than the action.
Bring in the BBC team, at least they seemed interested!

I feel your pain with the BT Sports lineup.

Keith Heuwen has an irritating Essex twang but knows his stuff. Unlike his Sky days, this time he's locked away in the commentary box with Julian so we can't see his "Just for Men" hair.

Julian Ryder seems to be on his usual form, despite the absence of Toby Mody. "Espagawoh" ...

Melanie Sykes (your aforementioned strident tart) I actually have some time for, but certainly not in the world of MotoGP where she clearly doesn't know one end of a bike from another. She was closing a piece with the terminally boring and charmless James Toseland and, having failed to mention Crutchlow, suddenly yelled his name when it was clear the producer had shouted a reminder in her earpiece. (If they wanted some female interest, why not get hold of wee Azi Farni from the BBC who clearly knew her stuff and seemed to be popular with the riders)

At least the race commentary ought to be bearable ...

BT seem to think some eye candy will pull in the viewers - they forget that Suzi Perry actually knew her bike stuff and is working hard to get yo grips with F1, helped by DC

I agree with the commentators pointless bickering and point scoring - Heuwen even read a message from a viewer asking them to do some commentary!

But the racing is good....

I didn't see it as I don't have BT. I just thought I'd mention that Heuwen and Ryder have previous as a commentary pairing; they covered WSB for Sky in the 90's, providing the commentary for most of Foggy's championships. When Sky stopped covering WSB Heuwen stayed and covered I know not what and Ryder replaced Denis Noyes on Eurosport's 500 GP commentary team.

Yikes. The Sykes/Toseland combo is absolutely cringeworthy. It even makes the Vanarama ad looks BAFTA-winning by comparison ...

EDIT: Just noticed that ITV4 have an hour of highlights tomorrow night at 8.00pm, That might be less painful and allow me to watch El Clasico live instead of the race ...
