The BBC has confirmed that its MotoGP commentary team will remai𓃲n unchanged for the 🐟2009 season.
With Eurosport's long broadcasting agreement with MotoGP having come to an unpopular end last season, there had been speculation that some of the British Eurosport team - consisting of Toby Moody, Julian Ryder and Randy Mamola - might have joined the BBC for 2009, when it will become the exclusive MotoGP broadc💫aster on British television.
H෴owever, the BBC has✅ decided to keep its existing line-up intact.
🦂"Suzi Perry will be presenting with commentary coming from Steve Parrish and Charlie Cox and pit lane reports from Matt Roberts," said a report on the B♍BC website.
The BBC's exclusive deal has generated conce▨rn from fans regarding the amount of track action it will broadcast at each MotoGP weekend, compared with Eurosport's extensi🍸ve coverage, particularly with the corporation also acquiring the rights to Formula One from this season.
The report stated that "Schedule times, channels and services will be provided for each [MotoGP] event in due course," but it seems that the MotoGP races will be shown live on BBC2, with qualifying and the 125/250cc races available via the 'Red Button' option for those with digital TV. No practiceꦆ action is expected to be shown.
"The BBC Red Button will allow viewers to watch qualifying, then the 12🌟5cc and 250cc races and all the post-race reaction and interviews on MotoGP Extra," said the report.
"All the action will also be available on the BBC ไSport website (UK users only) so you can watch the races if you cannot get to a TV.
"Or🌊 if you missed the race or simply just want to watch it⛄ again you can do so on our iPlayer service for seven days after it has happened."
