    Three sets of fucking adverts already, seen about 3 minutes of racing.

    That's good: I haven't seen 3 minutes of "racing" yet on the Beeb.

    I went to the circuit. No ad breaks there. :)

    Most people I know use something like TIVO. You can set it to skip the
    adverts.

    Still doesn't really help when it's a live broadcast though. You skip
    adverts, but you also effectively skip a couple of laps of the race at
    the same time.

    Hurrah for the BBC.

    TBF it was pretty shit however you watched it. Advert breaks might at
    least have given one the idea that possibly one had missed something.
    Not for long ,of course, but it would have been more excitement than
    the race itself generated/

    125s and moto2 were worth a watch though.

    Mind you, that's pretty much always how it is - 125/moto2 have plenty of
    close racing and, most importantly, more than a handful of bikes on the
    grid. MotoGP class fails on both counts.

    Hopefully it'll improve a bit next year.

    Was busy, so didn't bother. And yes, I know the racing's closer, but
    in general I find that the lower classes don't generate the same
    levels of excitement. For me, that is.

    It's worth watching the 125s, if only for the last couple of laps.
