MotoGP on the BBC

The 2013 season is under way, with Jorge Lorenzo defending the title he won for the second time last year and seven-time champion Valentino Rossi back at Yamaha.

For BBC viewers, extended coverage of MotoGP this season means some qualifying sessions will now be shown on BBC One and BBC Two as well as on the Red Button, iPlayer and IPTV.

For the first time since BBC acquired the rights to MotoGP in 2003, all practice sessions and all 18 races will be available to stream live to UK viewers through the BBC Sport website and on your smartphone.
