When I reviewed the MotoGP Live Experience Full app that was put out by Dorna Sports S.L., instead of the app from Soft Pauer that I had been used to, I found a number of things I did not like.

The timing screens were there, as well as the live circuit displays, but the new screens took me a while to get used to. There was also zero information concerning teams and riders in the lower classes: Moto2 and (now) Moto3, which replaced the former 250cc and 125cc championships. For some, these learning classes provide better racing and larger fields. Moto2 has been a particular success.

One of the most glaring omissions was of the live audio commentary. Dorna have one of the best teams for commentary, and while I am able to hear them via the live TV transmissions, those TV signals are not always reliable here. As the rainy season starts, so the signals die: 21st century telecommunications True style.

MotoGP Live Experience Full (an awkward name) has now been updated for the 4th time, so some improvements are being incorporated and progress is being made. The significance of the version 1.4 upgrade is that the live commentary is now available: just in time for this weekend's French GP at Le Mans and the start of the rainy season here.
