a minute into the first lap of motogp and your 3 hr stream went off, brilliant.
wont happen this time.
Do totalsportek streams play on android tablets? If yes what plug in is needed?
yes, for android all you need to do is install some decent flash player plugin.
Great thank you much!!
Hello from Canada. So now that the Speed Channel has gone, can we get MotoGP and WSBK streaming here in Canada. I need it!!!
in Romanian, Digi Sport.
Bunch of bull****, fox sports in America does not cover EVERY race. Qatar is on beinsp channel and I don’t get it unless I order it. How many of these races on fox sports is beyond me. It may be all the races except for tomorrow. F*** you Jews.
Same thing I am finding out also. Really pissed right now! Fox sports channel says it is on there….this is such rookie behavior.
You’re pathetic anit-semitic comment make you look a moron.
Agreed MotoGP… So Fox is screwing up again this year .. Come on… the first round … Get it together will you please … This sucks!!!!
I’m the US and I have directTV and I can’t find MOTO GP anywhere, I have FoxSports1 and a bunch of other channels and I can’t find it!!
So, it looks like beIN is broadcasting all the races this year??? Now I to pay ANOTHER $10 a month to watch 3 damn sports?! I’m at $110 a month for Dish to watch NBA, MotoGP and Formula 1. Unreal.
holly crap what a bunch of bullcrap! i had to pay extra on direct for bein! they had a replay show and it never came on! why is this crap network is even getting involved in motorcycle racing is beyond me!! I tried logging in on their website and it wouldn’t let me!! called direct tv and they couldn’t either!! fox sports dropped the ball on this one. First wsbk, now moto gp!! a** holes!!
MotoGP must have a death wish. Giving their USA feed to these inaccessible clowns. Cancelled my trip to Austin. They will be screaming in pain and confusion as to the horrible race attendance. Ruining their fan base in the USA!
Indycar tried this crap once with a start up channel and BUST… I just want to watch without streaming on a laptop. The new channel is hardly even a blip on the USA providers radar. I called to have them add the channel and they could barely find the new channel existed. I guess our market just doesn’t rate in the racing world (actually true).
BT Sport in the UK is incapable of offering a quality service to show Moto GP! Last year it was plagued with connection problems for its online viewers and this year the aspect ratio for the latest Spanish round isn’t big enough to watch on my iphone, never mind TV. I am so glad I did NOT upgrade to full BT Sport package.
Please review this contract asap!!!!!
MotoGP really ***** up on this and they know it. It will be on regular stations next year for sure.
Only way in US is to stream through (beIN sports for $$$ ) and some places you just cant stream this relay sucks !! No GP for me !! and a lot of other FANS !!
I just noticed that my previous comment was removed 5 months ago. I mentioned that beIN sports is a spin-off of…and then my comment get’s removed. Nice censorship TotalSportek.
I missed the whole 2016 season because beIn channel is useless, I’m not ordering it only for moto GP shame on you moto GP, millions of fans are not watching it this year either.
If I were a sponsor, who has promises in the pocket of teams, of about an average their stickers will be to see on “TV” (which is why they are investing into this)… then I would ask lots and lots of questions and probably pull the money out of it!
MotoGP lost millions U.S. viewers by not allowing major cable & satellite providers to show the races. Sorry MotoGP, you’re just not ready for prime time.
Wonder why the motorcycle races are always on obscure channels? I already pay too much for TV to see the motocross championship. Guess I won’t be watching MotoGP this year. Get with it motor
