It's a shame that the TV crowd did'nt get to see every inch of that battle in Moto 1. I was going nuts infront of the computer watching it. Too bad that I can't ever explain to my wife or anyone who missed it how awsome of a moto that was.

Any way to get back to showing both full Moto's on TV? the TV audience not seeing that moto was a loss to the sport.

I was telling my dad and brother about how awesome the moto was, and the highlights makes it look soo boring. Then the 2nd moto is a runaway! It always seems like that happens with Live Tv.

As a spur of the moment kind of thing I decided to watch the first motos live on Alli. All I can say is WOW! That was some of the best racing I have seen in a while!


I believe they put archives up of the first motos pretty quickly so anyone can go back and watch them.

I'm so glad I got up at 12.30 am to watch that race. Probably the best race Ive ever seen!

I'm not sure what they can do to air it. I mean there were probably only 10 people in Australia that saw it which is a shame. Id rather see the whole day Live on the net then have a delayed show edited into 1 hr that shows the best of the best if the slot needs to be one hr per class. This Live on TV thing is overrated.

Damn it. I couldn't wait to get home to see if this race was as exciting on tv as it was in person. Is there a link of this race available somewhere?

That moto one was great! I was standing at the turn where townley dumped it and hand Dunge the win. Even that coveraged sucked, I had to rewind and slow mo to even see chad go down too, they never even mentioned chad hit the dirt

Agreed! Moto1 was by far the best moto i have seen in a long time! Kinda reminded me of JS and RC battling in i think 06 at Washougal if i remember clearly, anyway, it was epic!

maybe if the sport can continue to grow and mx sport keeps doing the great job they r doing they will overtake nascar and we will get 5 hours of live moto on nbc or speed.

Here is everything all in one spot, race archive and RacerX post shows:

that 450 1st moto was incredible, loved how Dungey and Townley were switching it up on each other through a couple sections, and good clean racing. Its a shame BT had to go down, was leading up to be an epic last lap.

Thanks for the link. My son & I were at the race we just used his PS3 & watched the 1st moto. I have not seen that good of a race in a while.
