The Bennetts BSB Championship will join the FIA World Rally Championship, NASCAR, British Touring Car Championship, Race of Champions, Mercedes, Porsche, Lamborghini, Audi, Jaguar, and W Series on the program, creating a destination for motorsport enthusiasts on Motorsport.tv.
The world’s first live motorsport and automotive rolling news channel, Motorsport.tv Live is set to be launched this year, delivering breaking news as it happens from around the globe. Motorsport.tv Live will be hosted from studios in London and Miami.

Reaching our audience in this new way will boast the action-packed nature of the sport and get new fans excited for the upcoming 2021 season. I look forward to seeing the channel evolve and grow to welcome fans old and new.â€
James Allen, Motorsport Network’s President said: “Our partner channel program on Motorsport.tv is creating a destination for fans of all kinds of motorsport and we’re thrilled to add the world’s leading domestic motorcycle championship. The Bennetts British Superbike Championship will have its own dedicated channel and we look forward to bringing a whole new audience to its exciting world of racing. There will be added value later this year when we roll out our innovative Motorsport.tv Live rolling news service where we can bring fans the latest news on what’s happening in our sport and make them feel like insiders.
