So are they only showing highlights of the MotoGP ? I kinda assumed they'd be covering all 3 classes.
Yeah, if they are only showing highlights of MotoGP they should in theory be able to show the whole race AND have time over for chitchat and adverts.
That should cheer up Catteeclan no end.
I did watch online yesterday and will today. Good to hear Keith and Jules back together, bad, the bloody picture quality and constant freezing.
Hope Mel gets a little more knowledgeable as racers go on or I think she might disappear.
Where have BT got the money to do all this? Bastads have pinched the WTA too.

I'm lucky in that I get BT Sports free with my Virgin TiVo package. IMHO, quite impressed with the coverage so far to be fair. Plenty of people who know their stuff doing the technical bits and the lovely Mel Sykes doing the anchor bits. She's done a good job I reckon, and is far easier on the eye than that furry faced thing Suzi Perry. All in all its far better than the BBC ever managed and so far the effort they have put in makes it better than Eurosport.

Eurosport done an excellent job for free.
Mel could keep me busy for quite a few minutes, at a time, and is learning a lot about bikes so I wouldn't knock her. I must admit, although watching a crap feed I'm really enjoying the coverage.

watching the highlights now on ITV4. BT Sport have gone for a pinkish tinge to their commentary team, with a Frankie Howard and Des O'Connor impersonator. OOooooo, missus.

Bingo!
Spoke to my son re. BT Sport and not willing to pay for it. He is on a package that includes BT Sport. So he suggested that he'd could go on the BT Sport website and put our sky viewing number into his account. It even took our address without complaint although it was not the one the BT Sport account was registered to. I was very sceptical but I was watching Liverpool play earlier on. So was he at the same time. It works! Happy days for now.
Surely the system cannot be beaten that easily?
So, find somebody with free BT Sport who is willing to do it and give it a go. Nothing to loose.

What a load of crap BT Sport are. I have been trying to load it for over two and a half hours and keep getting an error message. After hanging on for fifteen minutes on the phone I was told by the nice lady that there was a fault and they knew about it but it could take several hours to fix. As far as I know there is no "Catch up service" like I player so that is that apart from ITV 4 tomorrow night. What really hacks me off is that BT said they had exclusive rights to Moto GP so I changed to them as my ISP and then had to upgrade my computer as the old one wasn't powerful enough. Then 3 days before the races start they let slip that ITV 4 will show highlights.Rant over.

use one of the links earlier in the thread to get a stream and watch it on your laptop, tablet or whatever. That's what I'll be doing in half an hour.

In the end it wasn't worth it as I couldn't maximise the screen and it lost the stream from time to time. ITV4 showed almost an hour of the main race, so from now on I'll just avoid mention of results and watch on Monday nights.

very exciting first quarter. I like this Argentina circuit, should be a regular venue. ITV4 is giving pretty good coverage, not too sure about these commentators though.
