I've been watching with my MotoGP subscription but just signed up for BeIN through FuboTV online, thinking they had race archives (because they say they do). So far, their app is incredibly annoying and difficult to use, can't find any archives, and assuming I can only watch it live. :/ I'd like to see their coverage but unless I'm missing something with their online/app coverage I'll probably be dropping it.

I get Bein through Fios...their pre and post race coverage is not bad.

Pedro made this race interesting. You take him out it would have been a snoozer.
True that.

On other news: Rossi's helmet... He truly must be in love with Uccio

While exciting to watch, this rash of stuff passes that create contact are going to get someone hurt.Kudos to Pedrosa for keepin' it classy AND fast. I was really hoping for a duel between him and Rossi in the end.

Just switched to the my bein service to Sling sports pack. Does not look like full HD on a 55 inch TV but not bad for the 10 bucks a month. On my 42 the quality difference is none in relation to Fios. I am looking to watch the races on motogp.com but waiting for them to develop an app for Roku

Video pass is only 100 a year and it's hd, plus every session, press conferences. Its great
and you can google cast to TV
My friend and I share a membership I just haven't figured out how to watch it on my Roku. Suppose I will try casting to the TV. On other news, you can so also watch the world SBK and motoamerica races on Bein as well.

The video pass app supports chrome cast
Pedrosa flew like Lorenzo did years ago at Laguna!

Anyone around here able to be happy for the guy that was skewered last season who came out this season and quietly went about his business?
I am, the kid operated like a surgeon. Nobody will be stopping that train anytime soon.

If you mean Marquez, then yes, I'm happy that he behaved decently throughout the season, and rode himself to an honest and deserved championship this year. He's got a fine future ahead of him.
A lot of the results this year seem to have been made by crashes and mechanical difficulties -- more so than usual. I'd like to see seasons with more head-to-head racing, and fewer DNFs. Yamaha suffered a lot from this, and Ducati to a fair extent also. Honda seems to have done a better job this year of keeping the bikes together, and their riders a better job of staying on them.
I'd love to see Rossi win one more championship, although that is looking increasingly unlikely. He's still a top rider -- always a factor, still in contention in any given race -- so I don't think he needs to hang it up yet. But each year the chances of him getting the top result become another increment harder to achieve. Unless he gets a season soon where the stars all line up and he has more good luck and less bad (and a better bike), I see the rest of his career in MotoGP to be parallel to Pedrosa -- a win here and there, but at the end of the season always the bridesmaid and never (again) the bride.
We'll see about Lorenzo at Ducati. Might be brilliant; might be a disaster. Probably one or the other, not much in between.
Everyone else is, well, everyone else.

On one hand, Marquez was definitely helped by crashes/mechanicals. On the other, he's the only rider to score points in every race. So, not the most exciting season, but he did what had to be done to win, and a drastic change from his win it or bin it mentality of past years.
I just hope Maverick has what it takes to take it to Marquez, I think he's the only hope in MotoGP unless Lorenzo REALLY gets along with the Duc. The rest of them will certainly win some races, and be up there in points, but beyond that ....
I wasn't trying to take anything away from Marquez; he has matured some, and that's been good for him.
Maverick is good, but I'm not ready to call him one of "the aliens" yet. He needs a lot more consistency. I think it's a great sign for the racing that we had so many different race winners this year. But a lot of those are still one-offs. For the last 10 years or more, there's been a clear division between the top 4 riders (Rossi, Lorenzo, Pedrosa, and Stoner [earlier] or Marquez [later]), and everyone else. It would have been great if Stoner and Marquez had overlapped and had the chance to race against each other. Who, if anyone, proves out to join that top group, is not known.
