The only reason I'm watching this year is because of Aprilia. But, why the hell do we have to wait for so long to watch races?!?! WTF? I just can't get excited about this arrangment. While I admire that SPEED is dedicating air time to bikes--one to two weeks is WAY too long before broadcasting the events. No fan is going to be able to wait two weeks to find out the results of a race. Anyone who follows the sport is going to KNOW the results before it's broadcast so where's the excitment in that!?!

Yeah, the delays are seriously lame. I realize that NASCAR, Pinks, etc probably bring in more money but I don't get why a week or two delay makes a difference.

That tells you just how much SPEED really cares about motorcycle racing!
