Portuguese Gp On Itv This Weekend

Thats interesting thanks, i didnt know or see that itv had bought rights to show it.
Is it simply tnt coverage on itv or do they have their own comms team?

 

The former. ITV reached agreement to show a small number of rounds free to air. Andy

 

They were showing highlights last year iirc, there were certain weekends that were broadcast live but not the whole season sadly.
Still better than watching the butchered highlights on YouTube.

 

Im amazed theres no case in front of the competitions tribunal when it comes to how two wheeled bike fans are getting shafted up the arse trying to watch a simple motorbike race these days.
Obviously itv arent ppv but the rest of it can go f*ck itself quite frankly.

 

I paid to watch the last 2 races in 2022, iirc it was £20 for the last 2 races plus the previous races and other add ins.
It auto renewed last year and I asked for a refund was close to £300 which didn’t represent value for money.

 

They still show highlights - 8pm Monday nights on ITV4.

 

Thanks I already knew this after Keith P posted on another thread.

 

£10 a race lol, its only about 30 euros to pay on the gate at Valencia.

edit: just checked its 70 on sunday but a tenner to watch on telly is still nuts imo

 

Agreed, however both my ans Son and me wanted to watch those last 2 races in full as it was so close for the championship. I wouldn’t and didn’t pay for a whole season, I’ll stick with the highlights on Monday with ITVX.

I used to get into Donington for free during the mid nineties as I knew a women that took the money for tickets on the gate. Now that was a bargain .

 

I paid 180 Euro last year, 200 Euro this year...Greedy b'stards at Dorna. (I decided not to renew)

 

It's free to air in Austria, I tried a VPN into Austria and connected with the free TV service, and got to the Moto GP live, but the data rate was so slow it made it unwatchable, if anyone wants to try it:

I used proton Vpn , they refunded my money immediately when I said the data rate was too slow

 

I use motogp.com, my wife is in to the racing too. So, being able to livestream over 2-3 days, watch practice, quali, moto 3, 2, and the gp..plus spoiler free makes it worthwhile for us. Otherwise I dont really watch tv anyway. I dont have a problem with the cost. Commentators, camera men etc need to be payed. Damn, even Simon Crafar who started out very ‘wooden’ comes out with fantastic information these days if you are interested in the technical side too.

 

Does your wife have a sister?
