I have never sat down and watched a Moto GP race. I have only watched a few clips. I have never had time with all the Motocross , F1 and sports car racing that I watch. I wanted to try something different so what seasons or races are good?

Honestly, I have been buying the MotoGP Videopass the past 2 seasons and it is awesome. So much content between free practice, timed q, racing and multiply it by 3 classes.
Watch.
A lot of moto gp is the background story of rivalries etc that make the races. For instance if Rossi were to win abain regardless of how boring the race may be if he crosses the finish line first it will a huge dramatic rage because it’s been so long since he won. Similair to if Reed pulled it off. Even an issue I. Qualifying the other day was a big deal because of the history of Marquez and Rossi. Lots of dif story lines and rivalries make moto gp what it is.

I attend the US round every year. Headed to two overseas rounds next year
INSANE. Watch that one.
And this is quite possible one of the best MotoGP races in a long time
As others have said, Moto3 never disappoints.
Like F1, go-fast day (qualifying) is always fun to watch for any MotoGP race weekend.
Shits all over F1!
Just go and watch it but i also highly recommend the support classes.
Moto3 is nailbitter like 95% of the time, Moto2 is like that 60ish% of time and MotoGP is 50:50 hit or miss.
Sometimes it is drama till the last corner and sometimes it is snooze fest because Marc Marquez is alien on another level right now. But give him 5 -10 years and he will fade and some new alien will rise.

As for the "electronic haters" (can be compared to the 2-stroke talibans in the world of MX), MotoGP has the overall closest racing ever because of the regulations.
I was considering a new dirt bike, probably a 350SXF, then I went to a regional club race (CCS) at Summit Point. I ended up with a YZF-R6. Track days for now, we’ll see about racing in the future. The dirt bike skills translate pretty well. But when you see the pros standing it on the front wheel braking into turns it’s even more impressive now that I’ve been on a track.
I have to admit that it would be great to watch 250-4Ts slipstreaming fromparabolica to finish.
For anyone in SoCal there are usually fun MotoGP race watch parties. I've been to a small theater in LA that shows them, and there's MotoDoffo Winery in Temecula.
