MotoAmerica scores NBC Sports Network deal
MotoAmerica recently announced a network deal with NBC Sports Network that will feature 22 hours of racing highlights and more on NBCSN the week following each of the ten 2019 MotoAmerica rounds.
The hour-long shows, titled “Inside MotoAmerica,” will provide highlights ranging from on-track action, interviews and features from the previous weekends’ rounds. There will be 11 shows produced on NBCSN, NBC Sports Group’s dedicated 24/7 linear sports network, with each show being re-aired at a later date for a total of 22 hours of coverage.
“We’re thrilled to announce a big part of what we believe will be the best motorcycle racing content available,” said MotoAmerica President Wayne Rainey. “We’d like to thank NBC Sports for their interest in the MotoAmerica Series and we can’t wait to showcase our racing, personalities and MotoAmerica lifestyle to our fans, both new and established, with a little different flair. We know the shows will be well-received by our fans, our teams, sponsors and racers, and we’re excited to get the season started.”
“We’re excited to add Inside MotoAmerica to our ever-expanding motorsports lineup on NBCSN, as NBC Sports continues to deliver the most comprehensive portfolio of racing coverage to viewers across the country,” said Jeff Macaluso, Senior Director, Programming, NBC Sports Group.
