MotoGP Broadcast Viewing Schedule Announced

Information regarding motorsport broadcasting rights and viewing arrangements has been shared. Sky Sport will broadcast 22 races of the MotoGP World Championship across the season on Königsklasse, Moto2, and Moto3. It is stated that all these offers are paid.

Broadcasting Rights and New Arrangements

A change is occurring in MotoGP broadcasting. For the 2023-2024 season, the Austrian broadcaster ServusTV has stopped linear broadcasting activities in Germany from Red Bull Media House. Following this, a partnership was established for MotoGP broadcasts with DF1. Furthermore, starting from 2027, selected races will be broadcast free of charge on the German television channel RTL.

Regional Broadcasts and Digital Platforms

The broadcaster ServusTV provides free broadcasting of the MotoGP World Championship in Austria through its own linear and digital channels, including Red Bull TV. The broadcasts are available on the ServusTV On platform and can be viewed via modern television devices. Summaries are provided for other events.

Swiss Broadcasts

The broadcasting rights for Switzerland are held by SRG. SRG broadcasts MotoGP races through the SRF (German), RTS (French), and RSI (Italian) channels. In Switzerland, two MotoGP races will be broadcast live starting from 6:50 PM on Sunday. Additionally, RSI will broadcast the MotoGP Qualifying on Saturday at 3:45 PM, followed by Moto3 and Moto2 Qualifying, and the MotoGP Sprint. Races of all classes will be broadcast live starting from 3:55 PM on Sunday. Furthermore, the MotoGP race summary will be broadcast at 8:05 PM on Sunday. RTS2 will show the MotoGP Sprint starting from 7:55 PM on Saturday.
