It’s just about as busy as weekends get for motorsport on Freeview: Formula 1 has the Japanese Grand Prix, MotoGP has the Malaysian Grand Prix, and BTCC comes to a climax at Brands Hatch.

Watching all of it won’t be terrifically straightforward, because the Commonwealth Games mean that there is precious little space on that single BBC Red Button stream on Freeview – which seems to be my favourite topic – so some of it will only be available online. We need a timetable – what, when and where!

UPDATE SATURDAY
Formula 1 qualifying was rained off this morning, and has been rescheduled to Sunday morning, 02:00 UK time, which will be on BBC One. The BBC Motorsport Schedule has been updated now, so it’s clear that the MotoGP support races will be on the Red Button, but only on satellite and cable.

So it’s going to be tricky to watch or even record the 125cc and Moto2 races – you can only record the Red Button on Freeview, and they’re not on the Freeview Red Button. And you might well want to record them, since not only are they on early, but they clash with the Formula 1 race. Fortunately, the BBC is pretty good at putting both support races on the iPlayer – keep an eye out here later on Sunday.

This all seems desperately complicated – and it is – but I’m just grateful I’ve not got Eurosport: then I’d have to add in the British Superbikes finale from Oulton Park too. Cor blimey!
