TV coverage of MotoGP in the UK
This is a request to Dorna chief Carmelo Ezpeleta by UK MotoGP fans to either switch the 2014 TV rights back to the BBC or to allow Eurosport to show delayed full coverage. In a recent online poll, 90% of UK MotoGP fans said they thought that the new 2014 BT deal was a terrible idea. The general consensus online is that most fans will not sign up to BT which will cut viewing figures severely. Effectively killing MotoGP in the UK. Give us back our motorcycle grand prix sport on TV.
The request / suggestion for payment AFTER you have signed is just that; a REQUEST / SUGGESTION ONLY and is for the website that hosts the petition only.
We have a problem with mainstream UK media ignoring requests to let UK race fans know about this petition.....so please email every website, magazine and paper that you can think of.
There is a Facebook page concerning this issue: Please come and join our efforts.

They're the multi million pound companies that have research /development/statistical polls etc, how come that made this decision, up to them, hope it goes t### up, and returns to normal next year (or sooner) Eurosport please.
Just heard ITV4 have the delayed coverage, and it's free, so I'll go with that thanks |

This deal was a con from the start. Give BT millions of taxpayers money to enable superfast broadband to most of the country then - lo & behold - BT buy the rights to Motogp & a host of premiership matches so we end up paying twice if we watch on TV! I have BT sport on the laptop for free & despite already having 35mb BT infinity, the footie still buffers & freezes - that will be great just as Rossi's putting a move on Marquez. Good to hear about ITV4 - it's always best to go for a ride on Sundays & record the racing anyway! _________________ Anyone who uses the term "workshop" outside the context of light engineering is a twat!
