Re: Eurosport commentators - where's Julian & Toby?
Yeah i heard them at the start of the season but since then i havent heard a peep. Yeah thy have other comitments due to moto gp going to bbc, but how did it come about that eurosport got the rights to show it agian, will they keep showing it or is it just this year?

if the motogp racing gets massively delayed eurosport can show the race live, its a strange arrangement |

There was a good article on this very topic in this month's BIKE magazine iirc. Worth waiting for the delayed MotoGP broadcast when Kirby and Haydon are the commentators it most certainly is not. |

Re: Eurosport commentators - where's Julian & Toby?
What's with Carlton Kirby's litle catchphrase of '17 laps to go, 16 next time by' all about? Especially when he says it EVERY LAP FFS!!
I sincerely hope Julian, Toby & Randy come back next year. The Catalunya race would have been even more amazing if they'd been commentating at the time... |

Probably because he can't think of anything else to say, so he just mutters useless infomation that we already know.

If I wanted a commentator to describe what's happening, I'd listen to the radio. I want someone who can add to what I'm seeing (my eyes work OK), and also shut up for a bit if needs be. I'm far from an expert but I find all commentators tiresome for the most part. The moments of genuine interest and insight seem increasingly rare
