MotoGP and Sky TV 2013

[roogazza]

Or just realise that it is a minority sport in NZ and Sky were not going to make any money on the deal so didn't bother. But go the Cruhighlandaders.

When I cancelled the sports channels they didn't even ask me why. They don't really care.

I did that several month ago, writing, ringing and E mailing. I was/am a pain in the arse.
Now I just save my rant for the fucks that ring and want to give me rialto for a month. Believe me they can't get off the phone quick enough !!!! lol.

The old 'minority sport' thing used to get raised in the seventies when bikes and racing was booming and we still wanted MORE.lol.
Little did we know that they were the good times, it's sad nowdays and sadly I doubt it will ever come back.

State Television is truly pathetic in NZ even compared to Aust. Coming back here after 13 years was like time travel.

Yep I hear that. Same thing coming back to NZ from 'Merica.

The new Slingshot Global Mode could be handy for watching a lot of coverage denied us in eNZed.
Maybe not MotoGP, but certainly the IOM coverage on ITV

But, but...the press release says it's intended only for international visitors. Surely no NZ residents will use it!

Does anyone know whose commentary we're going to be seeing on this channel? (ie eurosport?)

I usually wait for the BBC coverage to become available but always risky trying to go a whole day on monday without seeing the results as everyone seems to plaster who wins everywhere... I know to stay off nzherald as they usually post this on their feed but sometimes I open it without even thinking about it but then it's too late...

I guess no one is immune. Fox sports1 will now be broadcasting MotoGP as it takes over Speed Channel.
