They have some exceptional content = already saw the documentary on Schumacher & it has lots of behind-the-scenes footage (although the video is terribly biased and I say this as a Schumi fan). Also lots of old races to gorge on.

On the flip side, they need to get their tech sorted. The app is awful, broken in many areas. The web version doesn't even have simple video stuff like remembering to restart where you left off.

Guy Martin is a legend (without a TT win, but multiple podiums). Though not as big as the great John McGuinness or Michael Dunlop but his demeanour is very different from most riders/racers.

Check out this video of Guy Martin giving David Coulthard and Red Bull a lot to think about on a slalom and acceleration challenge at Silverstone. Obviously the F1 car was quicker than Guy's BMW superbike but DC admitted that riders have to work a lot harder than F1 drivers to get the bike around a corner especially braking.

Steve Slater of Star Sports made F1 commentating so biased that it drove me nuts back then! Then Hamilton came into the picture and I had to mute the TV to avoid listening to Slater's fanboy commentary. Had to eventually switch to ITV or Speed TV broadcast races to get some sense. Speed TV had the legendary Peter Windsor, Steve Matchett, David Hobbs and Bob Varsha commentating and were hugely entertaining in an unbiased manner. For ex.

Where can I watch 2019 or even 2018 races?
