[Bigdog]

OneHD is showing MotoGP qualifying on Sunday at the delayed time of 9AM
The race coverage starts at 2:45 AM on Monday morning. 125's first at 2:45AM, followed by Moto2 at 4 AM and then MotoGP at 5:30AM

[Poyda]

So basically, if you havent got HD then there is no live MotoGP this year. That's pretty fucked. Thank God the supers are on Fox

[WET4URacing]

[Wattie]

analogue gets turned off in a year or so, might be time to go digital.

[SIX36]

So basically, if you havent got HD then there is no live MotoGP this year. That's pretty fucked. Thank God the supers are on Fox
Plus buying a HD box these days is cheaper than one months Fox bill lol

[Big Lunt]

Should be another good race there was some good pace

The Ducati's are going well that is pretty clear

Let's hope for some close call battles - bring it on..............

[Big Lunt]

Guys I had a look on my fox schedule at the ONE HD channel does not show the Moto GP tommorrow morning WTF!!!

[Dunno]

Westy qualified 39th in Moto 2. 3.5 seconds off the pace :thinking:

Anyone else see Casey's cracking facial hair :lmao:

[Bigdog]

Guys I had a look on my fox schedule at the ONE HD channel does not show the Moto GP tommorrow morning WTF!!!

?? Mine does and i have put all 3 races on IQ for recording

[Johnny]

One HD coverage starts at 3.45 am Monday Morning, with The GP following and beginning at 6.30am...

[Azza]

It shows on mine.

On another note. I realy hope they work out how to produce it with no ads during liver coverage and work out how to play both Fomula 1 and MotoGP when they are on the same time. But i bet instead of playing one of them one ONE and one on TEN they will most likely play F1 on both channels

that was one of my concerns about the coverage azza, i want spoil the results for anyone but holy shit the commentary was once again "crap" beattie 's robotic commentary annoys the bejesus out of me and greg rust ??? no feed back to the pits like fox coverage and the old coverage and commentary was at the track. The one commentary miss a lot of passes and what's the go with replaying a major off ???? no replay at all , you will see when you guys watch the replay or race but wtf. maybe I'm being to pedantic or spoiled by good fox coverage. Why can't we have the commentary from the track like in the F1 does on one hd /10 ?

[WET4URacing]

its hard to keep u lot happy.
you have a bunch of fukwits on fox like there at school tryin to impress miss titties and dont go to the OS feed till the warmup lap.
against beettie who knows his shit .
and NO farkin adds.
couldnt fault it except for the young fella that fell off and the local camera boys for not gettin the footage.
CH10 dosnt film it or edit it.

[WET4URacing]

and track commentry prob costs extra . so adds or OS commentry. which wood u prefer????????????

do not want BBC coverage of moto GP. The commentators are twats.

[McNuffin]

I only enjoyed it because of miss titties distracting me from the shit comentary.

[Mr.Ed]

Last 3 laps for those who missed it. Worth the watch IMO!

[xcabbi]

^^^ Not the Mamma Mia version of footage but the communist version will do.

[Bigdog]

Sucked for Stoner. He would have won by a mile

[stetto]

Wonder wat spies coulda done if he qualified better

[oz r1]

and track commentry prob costs extra . so adds or OS commentry. which wood u prefer????????????

I wouldn't mind paying for my moto gp coverage , it's my preference for the 2 wheel and 4 wheel racing ,i watched the moto 2 replay after the moto gp on 10 and you've got to be kidding if anyone thinks onehd commentaters know anything compared to the bbc guys. would of loved to see the one hd guy fumble there way threw the bikes and riders in moto 2 , i think the bbc guy nailed it pretty well much in there first attempt , i think thats why beattie and rust didn't attempt it.

[Johnny]

Loris Capirossi, 300th GP race..... Demands respect :clap:

[The Outsider]

and NO farkin adds.
.

that was one of the best things to happen to motoGP coverage on free to air since like ever!
happy to listen to the shit commentators, jsut as long as we get to watch the race uninterupted :ayyy:

[WET4URacing]

its commentator not commentators. Rust is the 1/2 wit that nose nuthin. beattie is full of info. he does a cracker job. just coz he dosnt bounce round the booth like BBC do .

[xcabbi]

Well Darryl does sound like a bit of a robot from Dr Who or something but besides that he'll do. Greg just sounds like an overenthusiastic know nothing. Maybe they should swap Greg with one of the BBC guys. Then we get knowledge and over enthusiasm combined, and Darryl won't have that glint in his eye where he is ready to knock Greg out when the cameras stop rolling.

[Stu23]

Steve Parish is just funny as !! some of the stuff he used to get up to with Bazza was just............you have to read it hahaha

[WET4URacing]

but not on monday morning stu. cant see the past in the telecast

[Stu23]

aye......just have a read though funny stuff

[SIX36]

Was actually a decent race for a gp, Lorezo made it interesting in the end carving it up the inside of Alex, good on Hayden though....

[Stu23]

it was a good race with lots to see...........plus the bikes have changed so much.......Honda is a missile in a straight line, Ducati not so much later in the race and the Yamaha is just pretty much as it was, a bit slow on the straights but handles so well and looks after itself.. Pity Stoner did what he does best and lost the front, but its still early yet......Really pleased for Hayden, Spies showed what hes got too, wonder how long Colin will be his mate...Moto 2 was insane !! bikes look like they have a hinge in the middle, I think they are riding them like 250's and that aint gunna work, great racing tho

it is interesting that Hayden's bike appeared to lean itself out over the course of the race, considering one of the reported benefits of its new firing order is more traction needing less traction control with improved fuel economy. Also interesting Rossi's bike ran out of fuel on the slow down lap. Could be interesting in Japan and Assen this year.

Col will be Bens mate regardless, just like Nori was last year with Ben....... it has less to do with who's beating who and who is just a fukn arsehole in general, as to who is wo's mate and why. LOL

Intersting to see why he was so far back though.... will find out

[The Outsider]

it was interesting to see the top speeds for the race. rossi was last by a long way yet still managed to clear out on the others. :cool:

[Captain]

I can't believe I missed this race altogether, I kept an eye on Foxtel but nothing. Then Fog tells me there was a thread on it ... is this it? Look at the title, I thought it was about pre- season practice or something ...
I'm really not happy.
I see Rossi did his usual, as did Stoner :D. Was the race worth watching?

probably not worth the download. Although good to see dovi get a podium and be top Honda. Pedrobot annoys me.

EDIT: the moto 2 race is probably worth a look though. Quite enjoyable

[ottospunkmeister]

Yes I think worth watching, especially from half race distance onwards. Rossi controlled the race from the front after Stoner crashed out and let the boys fight it out between them (He kept some in reserve and lit the afterburner to put a 2 second gap on the rest for a while before relaxing and letting it drop to just over a second at the finish). Dovi made Pedrosa look like the junior team member and had a nailbiting finishing duel with Hayden, Hayden rode really well but his Duc got slower towards the end, Jorge rode like a champion coming on strong right at the end to overtake Dovi and Hayden on the same lap to claim 2nd with a damaged hand and Ben Spies was catching this leading group fast towards the end to claim 5th. Fark i think that was worth watching.

[Captain]

I'm thinking she must have a nice little bootie too ... :D
