Just rang foxtel to cancel my connection.. They told me they will have the Moto GP on Fuel TV, but replayed (didn't know when) and would show all the races 125, moto2 and motogp.
We still told them we were cancelling so the offered us the sports package for free for the next 6 months to see if its ok.. :-)
I'll see how it goes... ;)

You should be able to get ONE without having to upgrade to OneHD (no need for set top box)

Ha ha nice one Dave, I just did the same thing, but they offered me the Sports package (which I already had), the comedy channel/Cartoon package and the doco channels and dropped my price from $59.95 a month to $42.00 a month(price of the basic package when I signed up), so I figured I'd give it another couple of months

Hmmm they fail to mention anything about the commentary team... beattie and rust ain't the most spectacular team around :axe:

Then there is the whole ad interruption thing.. to pay for all the live coverage you can be sure there'll be more in race ads n stuff.. might be going back to watching Star Sports Hong Kong coverage over the net again :o

I'll just watch it on One and download the SBK races.

For those that can't get it any other way, you can always go to the MotoGP website and join up. Then you can watch the racing streamed live to your PC.

And for those with access to OneHD, the good news is that MotoGP will be broadcast in HD this year! YAY!

From what I can tell everything is being shown live on OneHD.
Only some races are showing live on TEN (not OneHD) all others are delayed (like last year).
If you have no fear, you're not going fast enough.

One HD = all live races.
Ten = some live the rest delayed telecaste.
Fox = Superbikes. :kuda: :kuda:
Remember, half the people you know are below average.

there is One HD and One.
One is channel 531 on Foxtel, and is for non-HD luddites like us.
And yes, the GP is on it @5:30am Monday. :)
