Free to air MotoGP races for non-subscribers to Sky and BT Sport
At least as far as MotoGP is concerned, BT Sport has got things wrapped up. You can BT Sports to your existing BT Broadband package for an extra six quid a month, but if you use a different provider for your internet things are more difficult.
Fortunately, you don’t have to pay to watch MotoGP, providing you are willing to wait a while. Quest TV has managed to secure a deal to show the races on the Monday after they happen. They are shown at both 6 pm and 11 pm. Just try to avoid finding out who won to make it more exciting!
Quest TV is available on Freeview at channel 37 in SD and 114 in HD. The upcoming races you can look forward to are as follows.
Italy, 2 June 2019
Spain (Barcelona), 16 June 2019
The Netherlands, 30 June
Czech Republic, 4 August 2019
Austria, 11 August 2019
San Marino, 15 September 2019
Japan, 20 October 2019

To receive the German channel signal, simply point your satellite dish at the Astra satellite (19.2° East). Usually, the dishes are oriented towards the HotBird satellite (13° East), so be careful. In addition, you will need to set the following features on your decoder:
12226 MHz frequency
Horizontal polarization
Symbol rate 27500
Fec 3/4
QPSK modulation
RTL Germany
Just like the above method for Eurosport, the same can be done for RTL Germany. The free-to-air channel also shows live Formula 1 races. The quality is not quite as high as on Eurosport, and you’ll have to put up with German commentary. Alternatively, you could mute the TV and listen to live commentary on the radio. You’ll need to point your satellite dish to 19° East to be in with a chance of picking up the signal.
