If its BT Sport, they can do one - looks like I won't see it unless I stream it.

NO WAY am I paying the full package on Sky, then paying more for extras .... shame.

 

BTCC's here soon.

2nd F1 was a damned good race, and 'though I'm a Lewis fan, was glad to see Ferrari back, even if it was 'the Finger'. Game on there.

 

Nice to hear that Ducati's got their act together - sort of coincidence they've done that the same time that Ferrari's back on form!!

I've heard it all now......... Jorge didn't win because...wait for it..................."My helmet lining came down over my eyes"

If it was Nico Rosberg I'd be a bit wary of just what the lining is - check out F1 comments for why!!

Id love to go but i havent got a bike to go on any more, ill probably never have one again, my eyes are nackered and looking through the visor and the screen viability is low anyways so with my eyes as they are id have the old field finders on and end up in the first hedge bottom, lol!

Ill be watching it all on TV and im sure mi dad will be going this year, he likes to go mi dad, he's gone from the old days, hailwood days actually lol! He always said mike hailwood was his hero and no one could tutch him, i bet them old beasts tuck some wrestling around the TT,

has any of you guys had a go on a old British bike? Iv rode a few with mi dad always owning them, still got an old tribsa basket case, and a old t140 750cc trimph twin, love the twitter from the twins, these little 2 stroke twins sound exactly the same but a little tinner ,

i like the old trial bikes twin shock, the trimph trophy 250 wicked old bike single cylinder thumper lol! ;)

Just caught Qatar Moto15.

First 5 laps were good.

Last 5 breath-taking - excellent.

 

Amazing the speed differential - 332 vs 352 km/h Yamaha to Ducati.

 

The Doctor's back - again!!

Good race.

 

Cal became invisible unfortunately.

 

Touring cars next.

and for the moto gp it was the one and only marc marquez, jeepers that lad can't be stopped, did ya see were the back end comes up entering a corners? Every corner come to think about it, i havent a bike to be waping around on now because i can't see very good anymore due to my health but id love to go back a few years and have a blast, what would it be like with 250bhp at the back wheel lol! I no what nearly 200 bhp feels like because iv had it, but the way them gp bikes put it down is unreal man, i love it, black lines left behind them coming out of the corners lol! Jusus Christ awesome freeking awesome ;)

He's what you call a natural born racer :)

And cal, go on son get it up there, he'll get it, its the first half of the season he'll click soon, but he needs to get a move on because there going to take off and he'll never catch um,

Moto GP highlights on Sky 120 / ITV4 at 09:30 today.

Do enjoy watching it - not paying yet more to watch 5 footy matches and some races.

 

Nice to see 'the Doctor' still going strong - must have so many titanium upgrades should be considered bionic!!

Marc marquez what happened, rossi was luky not to be taken down with him, if ya didn't see it watch it its mad as!

What about Danny Kent on the podium again 3 brits on the podium in 3 different races.

Iv got a feeling rossis going to make it hard work for marquez this season so keep an eye on him,

Well its in Spain this weekend, wish I was going, it'll be awesome, watching the hole weekend practice qualifing and race day,can't wait come on British boys, Cal Crutchlow, Bradley Smithy, Scott reading, Sam lowes, Danny Kent, John Mcphee, just a few and of course marc marquez to win i think,as long as we don't have another coming together with quicker riders lol, and slower, :) but its home for marquez like his second home anyway, i think its going to take a mastake from marquez and then they mite catch him, and im sure they'll need the extra hard compound tyres again because I bet it'll be hot in Spain aswell, Argentina was hot and it was eating the hard compound rear tyres to bits,marquez was on hard compound and rossi was on extra hard compound and it shown the difference in them,marquez buggered of right at the beginning and then 10 laps to go rossi started reeling marquez in,it was as though it was scripted as it always is when rossis involved, he's adaptered to the new marquez riding style but needs a bit of his own in there with it too, by the end of the season and rossi, smith, crutchlow, reading, and hopefully jack Miller aswell will be riding with the marc marquez riding style, its sideways anyways and on one wheel somtimes,it defines the riders from the riders,

i used to race sideways and it was fast too, in a car that is,but the principles still there,slide it in and keeping the pace up is the key, he's fast he's good and he's going to win the championship this year, its going to take somone with a lot of talent to catch him,but as I said there all adopting this supermoto style, flat track ovel racing style and putting it into super bikes moto GP bikes come to that, ;)

600s are a favourite of all time,there a lot more close racing ,moto3 is very much still like the 125s but there a 250 single cylinder 4 stroke now, they was 2 strokes before, 125cc single cylinder and they shifted aswell, these new 4 stroke single cylinders have loads more bottom end toque and are a bit quicker on the top end aswell, about 140mph from a 250cc ant bad,the engine there using is what's in a ktm motocross machine and them things are just mental, i pulled my kneck on one just pulling away,the toque is crazy,

share your thoughts as to what race is for you, moto gp, moto 2, or moto 3 ?
