Very much looking forward to it myself but with some reservations.
The level of electrickery on the bikes is now probably beyond F1 levels and it shows,the racing generally is not as spectacular as it was a few seasons ago.
The electronics on the Ducati are apparently engineered by the Ferrari F1 team,which is why it is so difficult to catch,Particularily with Stoner on it as rumour has it that it is actually custom designed and built specifically for him and his style of riding.

Toshiba or Scotch Video Tapes used that clip of Mamola years ago on one of there adverts.  "Re record no fade away!"

Well I met and shook the hand of my Motor Cycling Hero Mr Kevin Schwantz and asked him if him and Rainey were still rivals ;D he said "No we are best of friends now" he then signed my leather jacket and a photo I had bought.

All that I have to thank Albs for as he made the day possible, a day I will never forget.
Cheers Albs you are a Gent :y

It's now come up on Freeview EPG as BBC 301 (from 18:45) which should be on the Red Button.  Other delivery methods may vary but they appear to be taking it anyway.
