Abysmal coverage of MotoGP QP.

Seriously? This is the best they could do?

There's higher quality reporting with more depth on truck races. The highest echelon of motorcycle racing gets 1 hour of seemingly incidental coverage in the lead up to today's race...

Pitiful. Just pitiful.

DVR'd the qualifying yesterday.

the broadcast was delayed for 15 minutes so some nascar load could be interviewed about his hair style.

That pissed you off just as much as it did me? **** NASCAR, the France family, the SPEED execs, the FOX execs...

Marquez dragging the knee and the elbow in a corner? Wow. Crazy!

I think there's some shots going around of him dragging his shoulder.

Not shoulder, but fairly impressive, regardless

Great photo point.
That's faith in compound selection.
No wonder he's at the center of attention...and a handsome young lad, too.
