No more Moto GP on Eurosport

That's why you don't get the parc ferme interviews like the BBC can afford to provide. It's no surprise that the riders/teams give preferential treatment to interviewers with cameras and live visual broadcasts.

Imagine what Ryder/Moody/Mamola could do given the BBC budget and control over images broadcast.

I don't mind that Matt Roberts too much, though. He asks decent questions and is generally inoffensive and anonymous enough.

That explains it! Thanks.

Charlie Cox gets very boring and Steve Parish although an ex racer, seems to be slightly out of touch with modern MotoGP riders.

Any news on who will be the beebs commentators next year? Or has that been stated elsewhere, and i have missed it?!

The thing is that there are a lot of people outside of UK that watch (listen) Moody/Ryder/Mamola commentary. I don't give a dead rat's ass if it's MotoGp or WSBK or f****n figure skating just as long as these guys are doing it. Now I'll have to listen to that Nick Lapsus on motogp.com. Jesus!!
