Viaplay Group has extended its exclusive rights to MotoGP motorcycle racing in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, while adding Finland and Iceland for the first time.
The broadcaster will stream up to 400 live hours of the motorcycle racing championship in all five countries every year until 2028.
Peter Nørrelund, Viaplay Group Chief Sports Officer said the popularity of MotoGP was “accelerating almost as quickly as its bikes”.
Viaplay also holds the rights to Formula 1 in 10 European countries and the Indycar Series in nine countries.
In addition to the FIM MotoGP World Championship, Viaplay will show live racing from the Moto2 and Moto3 classes, where the premier-class stars of the future hone their craft and create their own incredible spectacle. Selected races from all classes will be shown with local-language commentators.
