so motogp goes to BT sport next year?...no longer on the Beeb anyway,
Shame, I will miss Matt Roberts, seems like a decent chap, I`ll even miss Parish and Cox, both drive me up the wall at times but there part of the scenery, no more `nightmares in bubble cars` or whatever.
the right guy took the championship I guess, but how much did Lorenzo want to win today!...ask Pedrosa!..
My lovelly wife knows how much I enjoy the race on a Sunday and leaves me be, 18 times I`ve avoided a visit to the mother in laws this year, I`am dreading next year already.....not as much as Crutchlow though
I wont miss Ms Perry that much, the enthusiasm just didn`t seem genuine somehow, most of all I`ll miss this:

well Steve I heard this morning they have taken the champions league and Europa league off sky and itv in 2015 for 900 million over 3 yrs. an analyst said they could not give the sports channel free at that price.

Next year I will mainly be watching first row sports on the internet, all the motoGP`s are live and all the premiership games live, quality has to be sacrificed a bit but will not pay out any more cash for 200 channels when I only watch 20 tops.
Been lucky to have spoken to Suzi a few times and she is well into her bike racing and rides as well, but more money for doing F1.
Marquez probably deserves the championship but Lorenzo was definiitely not going to be second today.

Al, thanks for the First row sports tip,
, as regards Ms Perry, I didn`t realise she actually rode aswell as being `well into her racing`, I humbly retract my comment, sorry marm!

Even though I will hopefully watch on the net if the quality is ok, I am hoping there will be highlights programme on one of the terrestial channels like there has been for BSB on ITV for the last couple of years, but I doubt if they are paying out millions for other sports.

Not only have I lost moto gp, but I've decided not to renew my MCN subscription. I sacked all the magazines a few years ago. The mags were getting to be the best way to waste a fiver. Well, let's say to waste four quid, as the interesting content is probably worth a quid.
Roll on spring, WSB and bsb!

ITV have said they will be showing motogp on itv4 and on ITV player the week after each GP, only an hour long programme apparantly but better than nothing they are also doing the same for BSB with Toby Moody doing the talking.

Just been told by my IT guy that if you get cheap broadband from Plus Net that they are owned by BT and you can still get Moto GP on BT sport via the net for free, once you download their app.
Needs some further investigation.
