    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Same decision here extra $80 bucks over MotoGP sub is worth it for Spark and its monthly so you can cancel anytime.
    I like the F1, WRC and boxing.
    I've been saying for years Sky should have done this. Let us get movies or sport individually. They've missed the boat me thinks.
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    If for nothing more than staring lustfully down her top in every photo in the first set of PR photos for that team.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Not sure how long they keep it available. The screen would get very crowded by the end of the season. As long as the keep each race until the next one I'd be good with that.

    That is one disadvantage compared to Videopass, where you can watch races whenever you like. I have kept a few races from previous seasons on the Mysky box, but you lose them every 2-3 years when the internal hard drive crashes.

    Pramac racing seem very public spirited in offering assistance.

    We soon discovered in the race that the HP advantage was partly bullshit
    Because when they turned the wick down so they actually had enough fuel to complete the laps.
    A lot of the other bikes could keep ahead or in their slipstream.
    Mir simply screwed up that last corner.
    They have more hp but not as much as testing showed.

    I was thinking over the weekend (I do it often !) I don't think anyone loved GP's any more than me for years? Travelled to races for 15 years.
    But always been a Sky user !
    When I read the results for the first GP I thought nah, I'm over waiting up for races
    Same old same old, nursing the bikes around like Dovi hoping the tyres will last !

    Think I'll just wait a week and watch tv3 highlights on Sundays !!!

    signed old and grumpy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    But you will miss the best racing on the planet - Moto3,,,
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    It does seem like a lot of artificial constraints stop the riders just fang it out their hardest. Zarco seemed to have the legs of the Dookatis but it could have just been fuel saving.

    The tyres issue, well it looked like Jack was hanging back being cool biding his time, but when he finally got passed by soozooki no.2 he pulled the pin and started moving up again. He had the speed up his belt. For about 2 laps and dropped badly. Too soon grasshopper.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Hey Gaz, Spark Sport is a pretty good option to view, being on demand. And as you know well, SKY has never been a good friend to Motorcycle Sport, so good uppance to them.
    You know you will have to watch the dramas unfold........

    The difference is that Dovi is the king of tyre management and the current Duc riders, especially Bagnaia, have a way to go.

    Weird how Vinales could go hard for so long but then the other Yamaha riders had the usual problems. He'll probably be outside the top 10 next weekend!

    yeah cheers mate, WSB is the other thing to think about I suppose? Spark got WSB ?

    Mum asked last week if I want Sky sport back on, I got her to delete it last year !
    (she does all that sort of stuff and pays the Bills hahaha).

    Been lovin the Summer weather and fangin around on the beast, usually twice a week! Oh and there's Trackday Saturday at the Minefeild. lol.
