MotoGP and Sky TV 2013

Going to try FIRST ROW free down load, just watched the v8's and worked fine but will try moto2 in three hours and see. Any one had any experience with it. Yes I think Dorma can jump in the lake and as for sky, I know where they can put their rubgy balls.

Would you be so good as to let us know how the First Row experience works out? (Pop ups etc).
The video pass from Dorna does give access to all video as far as I know though.
It used to be frustrating when sky skipped the pre races and only showed the GP. Was that the start of the decline?
I also think the "no spoiler" tab is going to be a godsend. Got to run a mate to hospital Monday morning so can't watch til I get home.

What is the price in NZ$? Can you log in at a time after the race and watch it?

It's about $155 and yes, you can watch any time.

Good on ya BMWST, that's a fact.
I'm hanging for a last minute change, but I'll be doing at least the same and probably more.

ps No Sunday ride today , so I'm extra pissed.

I am totally pissed too. I have threatened my TV provider, TelstraClear/Vodafone, with cancelation of my service and told them to pass that on to SKY TV. I urge everyone to do the same!

Bunch of drama queens in here. It's like you think Sky are the ones that don't want to show it. Sky just don't want to pay whatever Dorna is asking.

If sky had to put their prices up you lot would be back in here having another fucking cry. There are alternatives to watch the race. Deal with it.

Its prob just me but I hate watching things streaming through my computer. I subscribed to MotoGP but I would still much rather watch it on SKY

you do not know that.Its NOT the money.If they dont provide the service i want i am out.I will get the motogp .com coverage.So its sky choice you see,elect not to pay the price and see what happens.Imagine if they didnt want to pay the price for the super 15 or something as popular.You think there wouldnt be some reaction to that?

Our Broadband will not keep up with the streaming. Sky is my only option. Damn third world telephone exchange.

I have a 21in PC screen which has been ok for watching the Motogp for the last two years...but this weekend i updated the video card and now i have the PC running to the 46in LED TV in the lounge...have really enjoyed the qualifying rounds so far...the large TV picture quality is great. MotoGP .com is the only way to watch this sport if you are a fan, you get so much more than sky provides...IMO
