I avoided the news all today, looking forward to catching up with the MotoGP at the end of the day.

I managed to avoid spoilers, but now see it's 'not available' on iPlayer (not even 'coming soon').

In my search to find out what's up, I inevitably caught the result :(

If anyone caught the live transmission, I'd like to know if they did the usual thing of promoting the iPlayer, or if they aren't going to be putting it up anymore :(

This is very odd. The race before last was on iPlayer. The one before that wasn't. I have no idea what is going on.

You should be able to get it on Eurosport2 if you have Sky.

no spoiler on this link i promise...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/motorbikes/4805050.stm

it says the race will be on again tomorrow:

1230-1400, BBC Two/online
Race re-run: 1430-1100 (Tuesday), BBC Red Button (Not on Freeview)

maybe it'll be on iPlayer after that? pity i've seen the result before the race in finding that out though :(

i'm off to set my freeview recording box now...

the same thing happened to me, turned on the tv after we had friends round for lunch, pressed the red button, went to sport - and it was the main headline NOT IMPRESSED

couldn't even watch it

> True, i could hardly hear Steve Parrish

bonus! i'm not in the "they're crap get rid of them" camp but they're certainly not as funny as they think they are

i wonder what day this 12.30pm applies to :scratch:
