haha. Yeah, the "racing will return shortly" graphic that displays for 4 minutes is a bit annoying. Not sure if I'd rather see that, or some Rocky Mountain MC commercial repeated 10 times per broadcast.

I'm paying for NO COMMERCIALS so don't even suggest that LOL!!

To fill the gaps, maybe it'd be cool if they had someone walking through the pits and simply filming riders going back to the rigs, getting ready to head to the line, etc. No interviews or anything... just one guy and a camera showing stuff a fan would want to see if they were wandering around the pits. Bring more of the event experience to the home viewers.

Yup, doing the auto-renew too. Was very happy with the service last year. No cable just 1GB internet. Yeah, baby, yeah!

Bring on the Nationals.

You mean it could work differently ouside US?
Because I never saw that "racing will return shortly", what was happening is the commentators quit talking and the race was shown. Only pure engines sound (you could hear that crazy commentator screaming at the track in the backgroud).
You could maybe try a VPN, set it to Italy and see if it works...
Anyway, autorenew, definitely, well worth the money.
You guys are thinking how supercross does there commercial breaks. In motocross when they send it to commercial breaks during the race they pick up commintating as soon as the feed to the tv channel goes to commercial so there’s no missed racing other then the ten seconds that the position thing pops up before going to the commercial

I noticed it was 50 last year. But for me in UK it's still worth it. I did I quick work out to see how value for money it is compared to my sx subscription at like 130 bucks. 17x3h broadcasts is 51h of coverage vs $55 for mx and 4 motos x 12 gives 48 hours of uninterrupted action. But if you take 40 mins worth of commercials out of the sx broadcast you end up with 40h of content for 130 bucks vs 48h of mx for 55. So you're getting VFM compared to sx.

So many people complain about the motos switching channels, which i completely agree with. But I dont have cable so $50 to watch every moto without commercial interruption is worth every penny! I wish they did this years ago.
Same here. Make it great for me. Go out and ride on the weekends, come home and relax and watch the race. Cable is too damn expensive and for $50 this is a no brainer
