After the delayed showing of Spring Creek, and opposed to what the TV schedule showed things were changed. I checked my guide for future races and none were coming up. I contacted NBC SN to find out why the guide showed no more races and the rsponse was that for the rest of the season the races will only be available on NBC Sports Gold. We just went backwards 20 years.🖕
Hi J,
Thanks for reaching out,
It looks like the content coming up is exclusive to NBC
Sports Gold and will not be on NBC Cable content.
Sorry for any confusion.
Thanks,

I get the marketing reasons, but it still sucks for viewers. First motos on one network, second motos on another- sometimes live, sometimes delayed, full packages available by subscription that works perfectly every time except for when it doesn't.
For the most part I've given up and watch the 6 minute highlights after the fact. Sucks, but saves most of my frustration.
I really think they could do better.
They're all still televised if you look at each race. MAV TV for the 1st motos and NBC or NBC SN for moto2's. However, most Moto 2 showtime's seem to be delayed a few hours at most.
So, frustrating as fuck, I know, but you still get to watch them on television without NBC Gold.

“I pay $200 a month for cable TV, I’m not paying for the app!” Okay, have fun with that. If you ignore the solution and continue to complain, then there just is no hope getting it through to you.
Also....Just get the dang app. It's soooo much better watching through the app. Never miss a thing.
10 years ago if ANYONE offered anything where you could watch every minute of qualifying and every Moto and Main event uninterrupted, you all would have paid 250.00 a year to have such access, including myself.
You’ve been spoiled by YouTube and other free shit and say I’m not paying a “whopping” 84.95 a year when I should get it for free because I have cable. (Insert eye roll to all your entitlements) You waste 100.00 a month on needless pointless shit every month. We all do. To say you can’t pay 7.08 a month for a sport you supposedly love is ridiculous. Either pay it or shut up. I’ve got it and I’ll definitely renew for next year. Best coverage ever!! If you’re completely cheap, go in with a friend and split it and come up with a password for both of you to share. Can you handle 3.54 a month?????
The same people complaining about having to pay 84.95 a year are the same ones starting the threads about how all the riders aren’t paid enough, yet you want everything for free.

Cable TV is the equivalent CD’s and cassettes. Who buys those anymore? Everyone just downloads these days. Desk top to lap top computers.....other than gamers and offices, who uses a desk top anymore? Takes a while for everyone to catch on. Cable TV places like Dish and Direct TV are WAY down in numbers compared to 5 and 10 years ago.
I’m in no way, shape, or form disagreeing that for established fans this is well worth the money, and if you don’t want to pay for it take what you get.
Just saying good luck attracting new fans when the only other way to watch is by still paying for some sort of tv package, and then watching half the event live on one channel, and having the 2nd half of the event non live, 10 hours later, on a different channel.
There’s a reason you don’t typically see many, if any other sports following this model.
Not saying moto would become a mainstream sport by doing it like other sports, but they certainly aren’t doing themselves any favors by doing it this way.
