Oh well. Just have to choose a different minority sport to follow. Untill that becomes popular and is then targeted by corporate interest.

Why mend something that is not broken. It is the fans that make this sport. Why is the tv viewing being taken away from the majority of fans who do not have the privetage of being able to attend the circuits due to the costs. I hope the BBC take a view to fill in this gap and listen to the fans and start showing BSB races.

BT Sport is always going to pick football over MotoGP.. so what happens when there's two big games on at same time of MotoGP!!??? BBC or Eurosport is a must!!!!!

My husband and I are senior citizens - on a limited budget - and are unable to pay for extra TV services. We have been bikers since the early 1950's and I was driven to hospital (in our sidecar) - in labour - by my husband when expecting our first born. -Please dont deny us the opportunity to watch the only sport we really enjoy..

You should be ashamed of yourself Dorna there is no way I am going to BT and I am sure that my views will be shared by the majority. Guess I will read the results instead of watching it.

I have watched and recorded every motorcycle gp since 1986. Looks like I'll have to watch my tapes. This is a travesty. I hope you're ashamed DORNA. Greed is ugly!

Its an outrage. I get it with football, (paid channels) several games a month etc. but Motogp????? I refuse to pay £12 to BT.

I would rather miss out watching such an event than pay BT one single penny of my money. What next, Wimbledon?

£12 a month and no Julian, Toby or Spalders means I'll not be seeing any MotoGP next year. Unbelievable move that will see MotoGP viewers disappear

Very few people will sign up to BT Sport. I don't get a fast enough broadband to get HD anyway, so I definitely will not pay any more than my already costly TV licence.

So unfair - really enjoy moto gp, one of few things that make the license worth paying - loss of cricket was bad enough now this - only Wimbledon to go ... left with darts and snooker, woohoo!

Trying to hold us to ransom this. If i could afford to pay B.T. , i could afford to go to the races.

A sad way to "promote" the product by deliberatley reducing your target audience. No UK based financial backers/sponsers will be prepared to inject any cash with zero pay back. Very short sighted of DORNA

Oh well that's the death of the gp in this country, out of site out of mind! Unfortunately it will die of death like it did back in the 90's when world super bikes were all the rage! Such a shame! Thanks BT! Just as it was getting its popularity!
