Does anyone know why speed is not showing or for that matter, hasn't been showing a few of the gp races lately? I just checked sunday's schedule and they're only showing the 250 and the AMA's. Did they decide to only show the races on hd towards the end of the season?

not sure...i was wondering the same thing

it's on CBS. 2:00pm eastern I think

...now i just have to get my ghetto tv to turn on...

I thought they only did that for the Laguna Seca race? Go figure. I hope they actually show it and if they do, they don't go back and forth between other sports like I heard some people say.

CBS bought the rights to show 3 of them per year (so far). They get Assen, Laguna, and Brno. They might even get Indianapolis too, but I don't know.

I just checked Speed TV on DirectTV and the MotoGP race is on at 2pm EST.

Bah.. Get the Euro sport feed. Much better IMO.

So.....Speed and Cbs are showing it now?

On my "TV guide", it says the 250cc race is at 2 on speed and motogp is on cbs, but it's not always right.

Thats the 250. It said the same for Assen & Laguna but speed only aired 250, premiere class was on CBS

NBC gets the Indy GP.

Where can you get Eurosport feed from? I heard a lot of great things about it. Can you get it online?

Current race is usually posted very soon after it happens. You should be able to download and watch the torrent for this week's race long before it airs at 2PM EST on CBS and their lame broadcast.

^^ Downloading the BBC feed as I type, just because they have about 30 min more coverage.

+1 on racing-underground


+1000 on Eurosport coverage

Even when they have the races on Speed, the coverage is very minimal, it's even worse on CBS with the commentators mispronouncing everyone's name and calling the riders by the wrong name regularly. Eurosport is a million times better. This week's coverage wasn't as good pre and post race as they're covering the olympics though
