Fox Sports Latin America extends Nascar agreement

Pay-television broadcaster Fox Sports Latin America has extended a rights deal for the Nascar North American stock car-racing series.

The deal will run for seven years, from 2015 to 2021, and covers all of Latin America, including Brazil.

Fox Sports will provide live coverage of all races in three of Nascar’s national series – the Sprint Cup, Xfinity and Camping World Truck series – as well as action from the K&N Pro Series.

The Fox Sports 3 channel will show coverage in Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, with the coverage in Brazil being broadcast on Fox Sports 2.

Under the deal, the channels will also show Central Fox Nitro, a daily motorsports magazine programme.
