Anyone know where to watch the practice sessions Saturday morning live? Does not look like mxgptv streams it?

There's never a live stream for practice sessions on MXGP-TV, just live timing.

Correct, with one exception that I know: In 2016, the Friday qualifying races at Charlotte were washed out by Hurricane Hermine, so the event was compressed to a single day. Saturday's timed practice was carried by MXGP-TV, but of course the session counted as qualifying.

Anyway, I think timed practice should be streamed, especially for the MXoN.

Yea i have the streaming package, but just thought for something like MXON they would also bring in something like Nationals timed practice streamed free.

as far as i know there is no timed practice at MXON ... just practice , as if there were timed practice there would not be the need for a ballot for the qualirace gate picks

Free practice is always timed at MXGP events, including the MXoN. Last year Herlings was fastest overall in free practice. Shocker.

It'd be cool if we got to watch free practice, just for reference, same as P1, P2 and P3 in F1.

Yes but the only thing keeping "free practice" from being "timed practice" is the name, the laptumes are recorded regardless.

Timed Practice determines the gate position for the qualifying race in MXGP.

Free Practice doesn't, it is ultimately practice (which is timed but means nothing) much like 'Warm-up' on Sunday.

MXoN doesn't have Timed Practice, they use a 'ping pong ball' lottery to decide gate position for the Qualifying Races.

Whilst relatively minor, there's a difference between Free and Timed Practice.

Seriously lay off the beer. Timed is used for running order in qualifying, free is used for nothing but lame ass pussies calling their favorite rider fast while half of the riders is still holding back.

Qualifiers are streamed if you have the MXoN pass on the mxgp-tv.com.
