MotoGP: Colin Edwards, Dani Pedrosa, Jorge Lorenzo
WSBK: Nori Haga, Max Biaggi, Leon Haslam
BSB: James Ellison
AMA: Jake Zemke, Josh Hayes, Larry Pegram

I love MotoGP only! Especially The excellent performance of Valentino Rossi!

 

[krmathis]

Isle of Man TT all the way!

 

[KevDo]

Having bikes myself, I used to watch MotoGP, some BSB, WSBK and of course, the TT. I don't really watch any of it now.

I was just about to watch the replay of the Jerez race since I couldn't wake early enough to catch the live feed and Speed Channel would rather show the track dry from a rain delay for the Nascar Truck Series. FFFUUUUUUUUUUU!

 

[Ultrainferno]

no spoilers here actually, watch the race!

Guys, motogp is great, but the racing in world superbikes is 1000% better. You should check it out... anyway Jorge and Dani were awesome today. You gotta love that jump in the pond!

I have been wanting to get back into watching races for awhile but didn't feel like ponying up the extra $ to TWC.  I was missing racing so much I started watching NASCAR.  Well, I don't know what happened but somehow we started getting the Speed channel.  It is still part of an extra tier package which I never paid for so some glitch has allowed me to access it and I have been watching as much motorcycle racing as possible - including Supercross.
 
I go back to the days of Rainey and Schwantz bangin' handlebars.  Love to watch the GP races but the maturation of SBK has been fascinating.  I have yet to go to a GP race - which will be resolved soon now they are back in the States - but have been to Laguna Seca for SBK.  Amazing racing and skill level of these riders is off the charts.
 
My wife and I used to go every year to New Hampshire for the AMA races.  Unfortunately they banned the track due to safety issues.
 
I know SBK is on later today on Speed.  Looking forward to it!!!

how about real road racing? like the tt, skerries or northwest 200 for example. irish road racing is well covered by the bbc

 

[Mr.Sir]

The Northwest 200 was last weekend and I really enjoyed the coverage. For those of you who don't know, think Isle of Man TT but with mass start, so they are racing side-by-side with proper overtaking etc. Really scary stuff!

 

[tvrboy]

Yeah, road racing is cool, but you can't watch it unless you get the BBC or have a Racing Underground membership. At least they show superbike and motogp on speed, those are more accessable. Even though Speed's coverage of any moto racing is TERRIBLE. Remember last year when they broadcasted AMA races on a 2-week delay? All of their original shows are awful, I dunno why a channel for RACING would show living the low life or some other crap instead of actual car or bike racing.

Il dottore and mellandri, 

 

[ddashk]

yeah the nw 200 was great this year. races down to the wire. ilike having steve parrish as a continuity between nw200 and motogp, which was pretty dull this weekend. i think stoner crashing was a shame. hope he gets back up there.
