Um, how bizarre . . . just moments (and I mean literally seconds) after submitting my above post, I received a personal e-mail from speedwayGP.com directing me to the SGPTV portion of the speedwaygp.com website. I've been going to the website for years and I'm embarrassed to admit that I never once noticed that they have old broadcasts available there. LOL Guess I need to work on my attention. So, anyway, rounds 1, 2 & 3 of the 2019 GPs are available. Qualifying for the first three rounds are also available to rewatch. Dan

Sorry, I should have been clearer . . . I'm a GP fan in the USA. My personal schedule just doesn't line up with the live GP streams (which are about noon-ish in my US time zone) - I'm usually out doing my own racing, or other Saturday mid-day family/household activities. So, in years past, I'd pull up the GP vids on YouTube and watch later in the week . . . this year (2019) though, I can't seem to find any of the first three rounds. In prior pages of this thread I can find the GP vids with (what I'm assuming is) Polish commentary . . . unfortunately, I don't speak polish. I'm not trying to ask anything inappropriate or illegal . . . just want to watch some GP action. Dan

Hmmm, anyone know where/how to find the GP broadcasts with English coverage? Dan

Here's an open-ended question for any of you regular speedway travelers . . . For a somewhat naive American couple . . . what's the best Speedway GP venue to visit on a 'first time trip'? We're thinking European mainland (as opposed to the U.K.). You're all going to laugh and roll your eyes at me; because, unfortunately, we don't speak any European languages. LOL. We just love Speedway GPs and want to experience one in person. Dan

Not trying to ask anything inappropriate . . . but, has anyone found this year's first two Grand Prixs on the internet yet? Let me know if I"m not supposed to ask this question . . . Dan

http://www.americanflattrack.com/events All events are broadcast (in an extremely edited version) on NBCSN For any of you who are interested, they do offer a FREE 'live stream' coverage via https://www.fanschoice.tv/, which is comprised of the track announcers, usually a pit reporter & several quality cameras; this live coverage has improved over the years. It's not polished "Prime Time" quality (like "Speedway GP" or US "SuperCross") . . . but, it is good streaming coverage and it's a good way to watch the events live.

You'll have to forgive me, folks; but, as a speedway fan from the US, I have absolutely no idea about the economics of being a speedway racer in UK, Poland, Europe . . . I watch Speedway GP and it looks like these guys are SUPERSTARS, I watch a few YouTube videos of league racing, and the tracks look like our country-side weekend dirt tracks. I'm confused. Can anyone put it into comparison with something 'American'? Are speedway racers (in Europe) living like: American movie stars, American professional football/baseball/basketball/NASCAR athletes, American Factory SuperCross racers, American 'Privateer' SuperCross racers, American 'weekend' stockcar racers (basically making NO money off the sport - 98% have regular mon-fri full-time jobs) Just curious, Thanks.
