Wow, what a MotoGP race! If you want a spoiler too bad, you're not getting one from me. I will say that at one point there were seven (7) riders in the lead group who were in serious contention for the win. There was a spectacular highside which the rider jumped up and walked away from (hooray for proper gear!), some lawn mowing, a lot of lead swapping - there were 3 or 4 guys who lead the race at one point or another. This was perhaps the most exciting MotoGP race of the season so far. It was right up there with the 250 race Turkey, only less obviously dangerous. Now go watch it! Chango

I can't wait man. I'm sitting at work waiting for it to be uploaded on the MotoGP page so I can start watchin it. Fuckin already found out who won though, damn I hate having to go through the FRONT page news to get to videos on motogp.com hehe. Mugello's always an awesome race. The track is set up to allow a lot of passing. YAYAYAYAY

Under videos you go to the Full Video Race section and look for the one that says ITA Full Session Race, or something to that effect. There's a high quality and a low quality recording, so you can choose depending on your connection. You have to be a paid subscriber to watch the videos. Yes, most or all of the MotoGP races are on Speed, though they are slightly edited for time and commercials, and they aren't live, except for maybe the USGP. I think they broadcast them again on Tuesdays, but I could be mistaken since I don't have cable or satellite... Chango

I can't remember right off the top of my head, but I know with the one I've got I can watch all of the races (MotoGP, 250, 125) live all season long, I can also watch the practice sessions and qualifying. Plus, I can watch any race later in the season. If i just get bored one day and want to watch the 250 race in Turkey again, I can do it. There are full details as well as pricing on the MotoGP.com website. Just click on the "Subscribe Now" button for a full list of options and prices. I went with the 2006 Premium just to be able to watch the races live (also because I used it in 2005, so it's only 5 Euros more to watch the races live for me), but if you go with the 2006 Entertainment for 10 Euros less, you still get to watch the races, just not live. If you're not usually awake at 2:00am or whenever the various races are actually happening, you can save yourself a few bucks. Chango

Ahhhh! I understand now. No, that's just what the prices are listed in on the MotoGP website. It is based in Europe. :thumbup: Chango

You also get a ton of pre race and post race interviews with the riders. A bunch of neat interviews with people who work in the GP's. And every premier class race dating back to 1993. Although the video quality of the races back then is pretty poor.

For the last couple of laps I was literally screaming at the TV. These kind of races make Formula 1 comparable to watching paint dry, at least with the current FIM rules. Awesome race though, and awesome podium too.

That motogp race as one of the best i've seen. Don't forget about the two AMA superbike races! Fucking amazing. Best race weekend I've seen! Very memorable.
