MotoGP on BT Sport...I'll start the debate then
Posted: 19 Mar 2014, 08:46
Ok who watched the season preview show on BT Sport 2 last night then?
Bloody awesome I thought, Melanie S was really good IMO as her passion for presenting came thorough. She's the first to say she's not a world expert on the subject yet I loved her style and energy on the presenting side and yes, she's a a stunner to boot. I personally wish her all the best and hope the "motorbike gents" welcome her.
The usual suspects of Toesland, Hodgson and Gavin Emmett we're great as well. I love the spread of styles from Hodgson's direct "I don't care if you don't like that question, tell me..." To Toeslands "you have to weigh up the political team management reasons for why that's happening" (although he seems to have spent a bit of cash on his teeth!) and Emmett's approach to facilitating the technical gurus; it was a great show.
Their massive time dedication to the British riders is a real smart move as well. They've started to create a good tie in with them and I'd say >50% was about our boys with the advert of Crutchlow and Smith at the Italian pizza delivery shop being quite funny!
Clearly bringing in the same company that's done the TT coverage for a couple of years was a good idea as the show had a different production feel to it and the montages were fast paced and supported by great tunes. May that continue to get the adrenaline flowing PLEASE!!!
Yes I'll miss the old MotoGP on Eurosport and BBC yet I've got a feeling this new line up is going to add a different perspective and style to our much loved sport coverage.
What do you guys think?

Ps. Eurosports WSB coverage was also good and I've always liked Matt Roberts approach to getting the lowdown from the riders and team managers yet he should be out in the pitlane amongst it again and not in a studio "looking at notes". I love his style and camaraderie with the riders. James Hayden was great as always and his enthusiasm does crack me up at times as he's not afraid of confrontation either!
Pps. Sorry to those who don't get BT Sport.
Ppps. Why can't we have the BT Sport App as well Virgin Media? I pay you a shed load of money every month. Get it sort Richard B!
