MotoGP app gets audio commentary
Bike racing fans will be able to get live MotoGP audio commentary on the move in 2011 with the launch of the new official Live Timing App.
The new app, now available in the iTunes App Store, includes a series of new innovations designed to offer users an added-value service over any given race weekend. Key amongst these is the introduction of live and official audio commentary, brought direct to the user straight from the circuit by the official MotoGP race commentators as the action unfolds. This means fans can listen to all the action on-track* while enjoying a huge variety of data on screen.
In addition to this, for the first time this year, fans will also be able to benefit from a pause and replay feature, designed to allow live pause and re-run throughout each session, including the race itself.
More timing data has also been added to the App in 2011, meaning the live timing screens and leaderboards display a vast amount of data, including best speeds. 3D track navigation means that the map can now be panned easily so that you can position the track exactly where you want it and corner names and numbers have also been added for ease of use.
An app is also available for Android users in 2011, although audio commentary is only available to iPhone users.
Commenting on the 2011 MotoGPTM App, Alex Powell of developer Soft Pauer said; “We are very excited to bring live audio commentary to our iPhone customers. This works in conjunction with our new live replay feature so that the fan never need miss a moment of the action.”
The App is now on sale via the iTunes App store and the Android Market for £14.49 for the season. Support and service information is constantly available via www.twitter.com/motogptimingapp.
