2013 Korean F1 GP - Dont tell me the result I haven't watched it yet

How hard can it be to NOT HEAR THE RESULT of an F1 race?


I missed the race live this morning and am just sitting down to watch the replay at 1pm UK time.

Now obviously I dont want to know the result but as always happens with any sport when you want to find out the result you ask around and no one knows, you watch the news and the only result not shown is the one you want to know, you cant find out however hard you try.

But try and avoid finding out, its nearly impossible, The result is EVERYWHERE. Its the headline on every news program, Your neighbors have the TV on so loud you can hear it, Your friends tell you, Random people in the shop start talking about it.

So today I have stayed indoors and not turned the TV on until the program started so up till now I have managed to avoid hearing the result so maybe this will be a first, we will see!

2013 San Marino Moto GP This Weekend What Chanel Will You Watch It On ?

MotoGP, The BBC and SKY TV

I am looking forward to watching the Moto GP this weekend

I don't know about you but I watch all the Moto GP races on Sky TV. In the UK we have two choices if you want to watch a Moto GP race, The BBC or Sky TV.

Now I know some people will disagree with me but I much prefer the commentary by Toby Moody and Julian Ryder on SKY TV to that of Steve Parrish, Charlie Cox and Suzi Perry ( although she is better to look at than any of the others !)

SKY TVs commentary just seems to be natural and unforced and full of information and honest emotion and they tend to just say it like it is, there does not seem to be any hype involved just two very knowledgeable guys chatting about the race. They seem genuinely excited and interested in what they are doing and would do it unpaid if they had to just because MotoGP is what they are into.

The BBCs coverage although very good technically is spoiled for me by the commentators trying to force the excitement on you and it always seems a bit false, like they are doing a job and it could be any sport they were asked to comment on and they would still have to try and sound interested and excited as that is their job.

Anyone agree with me or not ?. Who do you watch
