Does this mean that Prime are not showing it, coz there's no way that I can afford to line Murdoch's pockets.

My friends with Sky are about to become closer friends

Assuming that we're actually gonna get live coverage.

It is true, here's the email -

SKY Sports has secured the rights to the MotoGP, the coverage will be starting in March however as a schedule is yet to be confirmed please see the Skywatch magazine or our website closer to the time as schedule details will be available once confirmed.

How come it wasn't good enough for Pay TV over the last few years? You plonkers have alerted them to the fan base so now real people won't get to see it. Bet you they stick it on a channel that requires a Digital subscription or one of the really expensive terrestrial options.

I'm gonna download illegally. FTW.

**Skunk** · 14th February 2007, 09:54

Ferk it!

Thanks to everyone who emailed Sky.

Now we either don't see it, or have to pay to see it, instead of getting it free.

I don't believe that people are bitching about it being on SKY. Now we can see it live and not have to wait till Monday night and try to get through the day without some Tossa telling you who won. GOOD ON YA SKY TV

**Toaster** · 14th February 2007, 10:15

Excellent - will keep the sports channels on then.

I remember when Sky lost it a couple of years ago - we all bombarded them with emails and the reply was that they had attempted to purchase the rights, their offer was rejected by whoever it is that sells the TV coverage rights, and that they would not negotiate.... how true that is, I don't know, but that was the line Sky were feeding us at the time.

I agree with WaiYam, last season was a complete pain with delayed coverage, trying to get through the day without finding out the results!
