    The second race this weekend at the same track as last weekend. I thought it was an interesting race. Let's see who has learned the most for their race set up and do better this time.

    The Ducs are fast on the straights, but the Yamaha is no slouch either. Where is KTM? Honda?

    In the States on MSNBC (for now) although it wasn't on until 11 or midnight for the last race. The "for now" is the plan to move MSNBC sports programming to the USA network later this year. Not sure what sports might be left behind and eliminated but hope MotoGP does make the move.

    Internet (FWIW ;)) tells that 1954 was French riders finishing 1st and 3rd, so today's 1-2 was really a first...

    Looks as though they're playing a shell game with the MotoGP broadcasts again in the U.S.

    Another friend suggests its on ESPN2. Ran through all the menus, no MotoGP.

    MotoGP may as well be dead in the U.S.

    Really a shame,
    Yesterday was a very entertaining race with 15 drivers in 9 seconds gap without any kind of artificial rules.
    150 kgs bikes with 300hp are just amazing machines to watch.

    It was on NBCSN at 10:30 p.m. last night. The race jolted me awake. The rookie Martin is a revelation. Much more entertaining than the GP dodgem car procession.

    A pity.

    At one point, MotoGP was riding high especially when Nicky Hayden was contending for and winning
    championships.

    Live broadcast events on major network, three races in country (Indy, Laguna, COTA) and now it seems to
    have fallen off a cliff. Two years ago, MotoGP was relegated to a network that was carried on virtually no
    cable systems in the U.S. We were told if we don't like it, subscribe to their live streaming service. I don't
    pay to watch F-1 live, I sure as **** ain't paying to see MotoGP.

    Does the U.S. not represent the largest market for the participating manufacturers? Whomever presses
    the button for MotoGP must be brain dead.

    Barton -- Are you OK?
    You've been ranting that MotoGP isn't available in the US, but several posts in this thread clearly say it is(was) on NBCSN. Nope, not live.

    If it's not on live, what's the point exactly?

    Two minutes after it's over, you can read about it all over the Internet.

    We should be able to watch MotoGP live and not have to jump through hoops to do it.

    Barton I watch all F1 and Indycar live via this link, no problem, they also show MotoGP. I haven't had a TV since March 2016 since I already work on day in front of my computer screen.

    I signed up with the MotoGP video pass and watch all races plus practices and qualifying if time allows. Really worth it if you are a fan.

    Another French victory ;)
    Quartararo was impressive (and so was Bagnaia...); many crashes, showing how high the pressure was.

    Quartararo surprises me enormously.
    After the second half of the season last year, he was morally weak but during the winter he analyzed the situation and put in place measures to remedy this problem.
    Vettel should take an example and be humble about his situation in comparison.

    For those who can, I strongly advise you to watch the MotoGP race at jerez today. I think there will be more tasty battles in this Grand Prix than in Portimao..
