Dorna WSBK Organization (DWO) is thrilled to announce a five-year contract extension with Eurosport, making WorldSBK available for fans across more than 50 markets in Europe through localised live and on-demand coverage.
Eurosport, Discovery’s leading multi-sport brand, will also remain the exclusive home of WorldSBK until at least 2025 in 32 markets in Europe* including the UK and Ireland, France, Poland, The Netherlands, and the Nordics.
Eurosport will show the MOTUL FIM World Superbike Championship, as well as WorldSSP and WorldSSP300 classes, live across Europe on its channels Eurosport 1 and Eurosport 2 including extensive coverage of events throughout all WorldSBK sessions. Fans will also be able to stream the action across all screens, live and on-demand on the Eurosport App and on Eurosport via discovery+ in available markets.
Eurosport will bring viewers closer to the action with presenters and commentators working on-site from the heart of the WorldSBK paddock at selected races to deliver exclusive content and enhanced experiences for fans.

Heading into five more years of collaboration with DWO, this agreement reaffirms the appetitie of European fans for the WorldSBK Championship. The 2021 season promises to be another thrilling campaign with six-time World Champion Jonathan Rea aiming to make it seven while facing the competition of other title contenders.
