    Looks like TV1 is learning from sky how NOT to do what they advertise

    WELL, THAT was a waste of an afternoon. Charge around like an idiot to finish all my jobs then wait and wait And wait and THEN 4 races.
    Not only that but I have to listen to the worlds WORST commentator the f%#@#wit Phil bloody Dark.
    Not to mention the attrocious camera work.
    Def won't be watching anymore.


    Rant over.
    With coverage like that, is there any wonder nobody is interested outside of the biking community.

    It was much better than the usual, ie nothing at all like the first two rounds.

    Would be nice if those guys got some stuff right though.

    Means I have to download the superbikes though ...

    That's the spirit, be greatful for any load of shit. No wonder we get what we deserve.
    I gave up chance to go for a trail ride on understanding I would get something worth watching.

    Gee it wasn't that bad. Not motogp but lets be honest, the racing isn't that close so there is only so much frills you can put on it. Still good coverage though.
