i am unimpressed with the commentary on motogp practice ,it is the motogp world feed and not bt commentators ,i suspect it is to save money especially since Eurosport have " taken over " please bring back Gavin and co

Couldn’t agree more, appalling to be honest. Unless there is some kind of price reduction I’ll be cancelling bt sport and watching it via the streaming service which is cheaper and the same uninspiring commentary

Most annoying thing is BT crashing the commentary to stick in their own ad breaks. Typical Eurosport behaviour!

It’s Fridays only, normal service resumes Saturday/Sunday for the foreseeable future, see suzi Perry’s response on this tweet from reply 4 onwards

Yes not long seen this, poor communication from a company founded on comms!? No expectations set and to be honest most comments I’ve seen all agree, we don’t need more on a Saturday but we do miss quality commentators on a Friday. I used to love practice day and am so disappointed. The world feed commentary is awful, ruined my viewing entertainment. I shall just stop watching Fridays and push BT for some discount on package prices since we’ve lost 6 hours of the team on a Friday and despite Suzy’s comments, pretty sure we won’t be now getting 12 hours of live action on Saturday……

TBH in this post-Rossi era been cutting down on the amount of coverage I want to watch anyway. Friday morning first practise sessions stay to catch up with paddock news, P2 for MotoGP as the final pre-qualifier then onto the quali sessions.

One thing I was disappointed about was there being no season preview programme earlier in the week. Had to make do with The Race MotoGP podcast, which makes for a handy nightcap listen as, if you think the World Commentary team are boring, they have nothing on those guys! 🙂

I totally agree. Not impressed so far. Why KMH. This is UK. It's MPH here mate.

It just doesn't sound right in KMH. 5 eights later the corner is over.

Apparently the extended Saturday action doesn’t include FP 3 for Moto 3 and Moto 2 anymore…..unless you watch on the app!!!? Just crazy decision making from BT sport….did anyone ask for consumer feedback before making these changes!? Why the flip show fp1 and fp2 if you aren’t going to televise fp3!?? Awful.
