MotoGP USA Laguna Seca
« on: July 05, 2009, 10:38:37 AM »
Here in the USofA, the race will be broadcast live Sunday afternoon on FoxTV from the financially bankrupt State of California. Crying crocodile tears :'(

Check your TV schedules so you don't miss the Euros going off on the Seca Corkscrew. Gotta love it.

There is no link I can find on myfoxdfw.com to pull up a program schedule!  It has to be the klunkiest web site I've ever seen.  The Moto-GP site doesn't even have a hint (that I can find) that it's broadcast.  If these goobers ever wonder about ratings it's no wonder...

I like this site, TV Racer, as it covers most all forms of motor sport. Note the broadcast times are Eastern Time. Adjust or you may, as I have, miss it :(

I see an itty-bitty logo to the right of the screen that looks like it might read "FOX Sports" - it's so small that I'm not 100% sure.  I guess I need to find out if I get FOX Sports.

This is ridiculous...

Looking at DirecTV's listings shows that they do not offer a "FOX Sports" channel.  Go figure...

Justin, my DFW TV listing and the newspaper sports page says it will be broadcast on the local Fox network, our Channel 4. Get your leathers on!

I'm tuning in to my local FOX channel, but I subscribe to motogp.com and get all the practice/qualifying/racing live for every race.  Can't depend on the US to broadcst important stuff like this.  I'll probably watch the Fox network, but turn down the volume and listen to the motogp guys call the race.  

GO ROSSI!.....uh...NICKY!
Just hope Lorenzo and Stoner have recovered from their highsides in qualifying yesterday.  I want to watch a race, not a parade.   ;D

Thanks why I love my MotoGP subscription.   Just finished up watching the podium ceremony and interviews with the winners.  Don't get that on US TV.   I did tape the show so I can go back and see Greg's description of the bike's swingarm or whatever the heck he was trying to show....    ;)

Rossi had a go on that last corner, huh?  And Nicky did his best of the year!   YEa!!  Go NICKY!!  LOVE MY MOTOGP RACING!!!  I'll be at INDY for the show there.  Can't wait...  :P
