Heads Up - Italian Mgp Round Live On Itv This Weekend

Is this to replace the gap that would otherwise be filled by Philip Schofield?

 

Is this a one off with ITV??

 

It’s not the first time. Andy

 

Not regular then? No need to can my BT Sport subscription by the sounds of it.

 

Scheduled in the Sky planner - thank you

 

IMO, the recent purchase of Eurosport and BT Sport by Warner Brothers Discovery will, in the long term, repackage how the viewing public get access to motorcycle sport. My concern is what will happen when the current MotoGP and WSBK broadcasting rights expire. IIRC, when BT Sport (IMO, foolishly) outbid everyone for the rights to broadcast MotoGP, they tried to play hardball when other broadcasters wanted a share of the rights. Very real possibility, we’ll all be looking at different subscription channels. Andy

 

I believe BT Sports will be rebranded TNT Sports in July.

I recently got an email from BT to say that they will stop supplying me with BT Sport from the 5th July (it has so far been included in my broadband package). At least they are doing it between races.

I understand from Googling that at some time Eurosport will also be rolled into a TNT Sports subscription but not this summer on Sky.
I'm not 100% sure about Eurosport but there is no MGP until 6 Aug so I can wait and see what happens but that is potentially my MotoGP and WSBK gone in one fell swoop.

I will likely subscribe to TNT Sports on a monthly pass to the end of the season and then consider what to do next year over xmas.

Hope they keep Hodgy, bring back Keith Huwen.

 

Just found this article, https://www.cordbusters.co.uk/tnt-sports-arrival-date-revealed/ and it seems my worst fears are being realised. MotoGP, WSBK, BSB and Speedway will become a streaming service. Andy
