Moto GP at its lowest ebb at moment, used to watch every race. Not interested now.

100% this ^

Never missed a race, up at 2, 3 or 4am. Booked grandstand seats and flights months in advance and counted the days.

Now, riders changed, rules changed, format changed, Pay to View wasn't the deal breaker but didn't help, no real characters now, no Suzuki, find it hard to get excited now. Not really missing it, miss how it used to be.

To me not about how to watch it, its what im watching. Rules were changed to improve Ducati, yrs ago, most money paid i guess. No Suzuki, yeah, ruined it for me. Now its the most gadgets,not about riding. Marquez, Quarteraro so good, just made to look like fools. Even last race, another launch control released. Moto 2&3 are very good to watch.

Couldn't agree more, it's why Stoner quit

I still love it and watch each race but I agree it isn't as good as it was.

Still better than F1 though. (possibly yesterdays race excepted)

Rossi, Stoner, Marquez, Lorenzo, several others, love them or hate them, they made MotoGP interesting. The whole pantomime of Hero's and Villains, the characters, the rivalry.  I didn't see any of that when I lost interest a year or 2 back.

As Stoner has said, get rid of the gadgets, get rid of power that just makes a bike 30k faster in a straight line. Bring it back to riding skill. Thats what 2&3 are at present. Moto 1 has lost me at present, yeah i did the get up in middle of night to watch, loved Suzuki battling. All those things, has nearly destroyed Rins and Mir now, they are great riders, guess theyre just sick of gadgets also. Latest news, Nir about to retire or join the Ducati gadgets. Sad days.
