I guess this is a matter of personal preference, but I haven´t watched many full races from the US the past 2-3 seasons, because they are catering to the lowest common denominator. It comes off as a Nickelodeon production. I want to see racing, and don´t care if a casual viewer doesn´t understand everything that is going on. If they are intrigued, they can surely understand what a tear off is, or root for a bike number for now. I´d love to see it change, but as it is, it´s just not for me anymore unfortunately. I´m in no way...

5/7/2024 1:09am not quite 1/4 of the screen PhilG but I get the point. Most all of us are watching TV with 16:9 aspect ration and MXGP TV is cutting off the already smaller aspect which is the height or 9. I don't really care where they put the leader board just let us see at least the top 20 positions. That...

MXGP-TV isn't that bad I think, only miss the AMA's leaderboard. It was a bit annoying last year during the outdoors, when they showed Jett watching his brother on a screen in almost every race. Not very interesting. Luckily they're in the same class this year 😛

Well, as most often a single individual is never representative of the average, so just know you are wrong 😂 Personally I don’t agree with any of your opinions, except I truly enjoy MXGP more when Malin has a co-announcer (I think he and JT$ is gold), but the AMA announcing is so watered down to cater to new viewers (which is so stupid you can’t even believe it) that it’s borderline stupid. Watching MXGP it’s liberating not having to have someone explain what a tear-off is, or what a rider’s girlfriend’s mother’s cat is named! 😂 Anyway, it’s just...

I agree with pretty much all of this that’s why I’ll never give Luongo a dollar. I enjoy the races, I watch pretty much every moto, there are ways to watch it for free. CBS sports has 1st moto highlights and full 2nd motos(with commercials). To catch the qualifying races and the first motos just keep refreshing the search on YouTube right after they happen. Theres a couple rad people out there who upload every race, the YouTube mods take them down, but if you click it before it’s taken down(at least on Roku) you’re golden, but sometimes it will...

That's the frustration; I can see it is great racing by unbelievable riders, just broadcast terribly compared to AMA

For almost 20 years, I've been a loyal follower and fan of AMA Motocross and Supercross, religiously tuning in for every race, indoors and outdoors. Being from the UK myself, I recently decided to give MXGP another chance and subscribed to MXGP TV after seeing the talent of top MXGP riders at Hawkstone International a few weeks ago, Unfortunately, within just ten minutes of diving into my first MX2 moto, I started scrolling away on my phone, completely unengaged, questioning my hefty £140 investment. Here's what struck me as where the MXGP TV broadcast lacks: Commentary: Unlike the dynamic back-and-forth...

5/6/2024 1:58pm My first year subscribing to MXGP TV. My biggest issue is the rider names displayed at the bottom of the TV screen, it's completely useless! This horizontal data ticking over 4 rider names and positions at a time makes it impossible to follow the race . MXGP should to change to a static, vertical data set ( the same as...
