What is TwitGP?

Good Point! TwitGP is the world's first ever 'Virtual Sporting Event.'

All you have to do is follow @TwitGP on Twitter and the story will unfold before your very eyes.

Just like with Actual MotoGP, practice will take place on Friday, qualifying on Saturday and the main race will be on Sunday. Keep an eye on @TwitGP to find out the exact times.

You will read about the build up via presenter @suziperry and @mattnroberts (all RT'd on @TwitGP) and they will have all the latest news from riders and celebs in Twitlane and on the grid.

All the action will be revealed 140 characters at a time. Think football vidiprinter or 24 hour news channel - rolling Tweets!

The key to all this is follower interaction - we never know where @TwitGP fans will take it next.

The Logo That Started It All

Twitegi Circuit Guide and Map

Designed by the legendary Sultan of Slide, Mr Tiff Needell (@tiff_tv), this is the TwitGP circuit, Twitegi.

Note how the corners are named after every World Champion since Sheene. That's attention to detail, that is.

Also note how he had to fax it to us. Classic.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome Race Fans! Sometimes, 140 characters just isn't enough, so hopefully this blog will help explain and illuminate the inner workings of @TwitGP.

It's also a one-stop shop for passes, logos and circuit guides and a link to press about @TwitGP.
