        I think 2nd and 3rd would be Texas and Argentina. I hope Jerez gets their contract extended. Sad no Estoril

            • A comfortable win by Dani Pedrosa.. Lorenzo followed dani closely for few laps but a big movement from his M1 made Lorenzo to settle in 2nd place.. Tech 3 Yamaha duos fought to the flag finally Dovi taking the final podium spot really a interesting battle of the race... It was good to see Ben Spies fighting for the podium and finally settling for 5th place... Nicky Hayden crash was horrible and Bradl's crash crashed his first podium chances.. Rossi out breaking Rea in the long straight forced him to run wide and rejoin the race at the bottom, but finally moved up the order and finished in 8th place.. CRT battle saw Aleix Espargaro taking the win from Randy De Puniet...

              • TAAZA NEWS!!!

                Bridgepoint brings together MotoGP and World Superbikes

                Bridgepoint has announced that Dorna Sports and Infront Sports & Media have reached agreement to bring both their motorcycle racing interests under a single umbrella organisation. Dorna is the organiser of the FIM Road Racing World Championship Grand Prix ("MotoGP"), whilst Infront organises the eni FIM Superbike World Championship ("WorldSBK") through its subsidiary Infront Motor Sports.
                As a consequence, MotoGP and WorldSBK, will be integrated within the Dorna Sports group but managed as separate events with a view to enhancing the two distinct championships. The objective is to allow both series to develop and enhance their championship personalities, retaining their leadership positions in the arena of world motorcycle road racing - WorldSBK, with its focus on production-based racing, and MotoGP with its focus on prototype racing. At the same time, both championships will benefit from joint marketing and commercial strategies.

                Philippe Blatter, President & CEO of Infront Sports & Media, said: "Under the new structure, the two leading motorcycle road racing events are now set for sustainable further growth and development. A true win-win situation has been created. Both Dorna and Infront can now further strengthen and focus on their core competencies and, in addition, achieve leading positions in their specific area of expertise."

                • Can someone please point me to a (free) site where I can watch MotoGP live. I am relocating from Bangalore to Mumbai, and have shipped my TV after watching last race. I didn't realise there were 2 more races in this month, and I will be in mumbai on 3rd November, right on time to watch final race.

                  Hence, please point me to a (free) site where I can watch MotoGP live. Thanks............

                  • i have searched a lot earlier for such sites, but haven't found any. you will need to purchase motogp video pass to watch on official website.just once i found a site for free live streaming of motogp race, but it stopped midway and started displaying "banned"i think motogp maintains strict control over this thing.

                            • That is really sad, Fcuk u Dorna. I feel all the manufacturers should form an association and have their own racing series.
