When you see the repeated dross that’s served up in the GP,s this year it’s not hard to see why people are giving up on it, if going forward Eurosport put this on subscription channels I can think of a few more that won’t bother including me. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of having a camera etc at non featured matches, why not use the resources, to show an extra match, to replace the rained off one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forgive my technical ignorance, but would this mean you can only watch it live?, and be unable to fast forward between races? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I currently use Eurosport app and BT Sport app - both have an 'on demand' option to watch live matches again, after the event. And yes you can fast forward.

I get bored watching live speedway on TV, long breaks for adverts, plus riders taking an age to get settled into their start positions for races! Watching it after means you can fast forward lots of wasted time! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aDarkDesign 0 Posted September 1, 2021 The on board cam shows a terrific view of the handlebars! It looks like its fixed to his chin. Pretty much sums up Eurosport I'm afraid, half hearted. Also sums up UK speedway too, from Sky Sports to BT to Eurosport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, we (my father and I) always watch live just like we do a footy match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I badly miss the old system which led up to the world final where any one of the field could be world champion on the night. They were great occasion’s. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
