BBC extends MotoGP TV deal

Manel Arroyo, Dorna's Managing Director, added they were pleased to have secured a deal with one of the world's foremost television broadcasters.

“Dorna is delighted to extend its collaboration with the BBC, and thanks to their prestige and their dedication to MotoGP, we are sure that the Championship will continue to grow in the UK. We are also happy that fans will not miss out and can continue to enjoy all races and qualifying sessions in the future.”

No mention has been made as to who will present and commentate the coverage. Currently, Charlie Cox, Steve Parrish and Suzi Perry anchor the BBC coverage with pit lane reports from Matt Roberts.

However, there is a campaign behind the popular threesome of Toby Moody, Julian Ryder and Randy Mamola, who led the Eurosport coverage, which could well prompt the BBC to revise its line-up.

I read in last weeks comic (MCN) that the BBC may be in a deal with Eurosport for coverage.

Two problems with this.

First it was in MCN and that paper is always full of ****.

Second Why would the BBC get the rights and then farm it out to Eurosport?
