Pay-television broadcaster ESPN Brasil has agreed a three-year extension to its rights deal for the Superbike World Championship (WSBK) motorcycling series.
The agreement, spanning the 2016 to 2018 seasons, was struck with Dorna WSBK, commercial rights-holder of the series.
Under the deal, WSBK will continue to be broadcast by ESPN in both English and Portuguese languages in Brazil.
Dorna said the extension helps to maintain “key visibility” for the series in a “very strategic market” for the motorcycle industry.
