Like your idea of using BBC3, ive never really seen anything decent on BBC3 before this
I disagree about the comments relating the Steve Parish, Charlie, Suzi (Come on! You wouldnt say no would you!) and Matt. Although I appreciate the knowledge of Moody, Ryder and Mamola, I do prefere to listen to the BBC2 coverage.
Im a HUUUUUGE MotoGP/motorbike racing fan and have been since out of nappys, and do feel that if the BBC are unable to provide as much practise/qualifying/125/250 coverage as Eurosport are able to that it'll be a crying shame and a huge loss to the 'obsessed' amongst us.
TBH, all in all I worry about the future of MotoGP as an exciting race specticale. I remember the good old days of the 500cc animals, close racing that would kill a mere mortal but not the gods that were sitting on the bikes. Nowadays its all about 'slowing things down' and making what should be the absolute pinicle of motorcycle racing into a slower form.
And although I dislike F1, what on earth is having the engines and gearboxes produced by a single manufacturer going to do for F1's pinicle reputation?
