MotoGP Race Watching Options?

[seawraith]

I don't get Speed and paying $135 for a subscription to MotoGP.com is steep. Anyone know of any other options for watching the races? Same for FIM and AMA...

I know I can get via bittorrent but the quality varies and would have to wait who knows how long before it gets posted if at all.

TIA!

The torrents are usually on site the same day, alot of times, BEFORE theyre aired on SPEED, and theyre the euro feeds. I NEVER watch it on SPEED, at least not in the last 2 years. Quality is ALWAYS better than the feed on SPEED. If you have a flatscreen TV that works as a monitor, you can do what i do. D/L them to the laptop, and plug the VGA cable into the TV and watch it on the big screen.

I'm going to try to set up viewing parties at the Buffalo's in Athens again. They have a separate room where we can set up and watch the race on a big screen.
Where is a torrent site that I can tap into for some WSBK racing?

Do yourself a favor and get the BBC MotoGP broadcasts. Commentary is waaaaaaaaaaay better than the Eurosport broadcast

I love my Motogp subscription.... Nothing beats a live commercial free race morning noon or night... The Hell with Speed and their NASCRAP...

Have you seen the new HiRes Plus? It's great.

two years ago I figured out a way to trick the bbc iplayer into thinking I was in the UK, but it could be a tedious job every time there was a race. Last year I said eff it and got the MotoGP subscription. This year with my MotoGP budget going to Autocross, I am going to go back to the iPlayer, or torrents. Speed can bite me.

torrents, usually get the torrent and the race downloaded the same day of the race. Quality is pretty much HD, sometimes its the euro feed, sometimes its bbc. Either of them is better than the SPEED announcers, and its the entire race, no commercials, typically 30 mins of pre-race interviews, hour long race, and 15-30 mins of post race interviews. :up:
