International sports streaming platform DAZN has extended its exclusive broadcasting rights for the MotoGP World Championship in Spain through the end of the 2030 season while also securing the series’ media rights in Portugal until 2031.
Under the new agreements, DAZN will continue to broadcast every practice session, qualifying, sprint race and Grand Prix across MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3, both live and on demand.
Spain partnership extended
The latest three-year renewal extends DAZN’s existing agreement, which had been due to expire after the 2027 season.
The platform has carried uninterrupted MotoGP coverage in Spain since launching in the market in March 2019, following its previous rights renewal in 2022.
DAZN replaces Sport TV in Portugal
Alongside the Spanish extension, DAZN has acquired the Portuguese rights, replacing Sport TV, which has held MotoGP rights in the country for more than 15 years.
Sport TV’s current five-year agreement expires at the end of the 2026 season, while DAZN’s new deal will run through the 2031 MotoGP campaign.
“MotoGP is part of DAZN’s DNA”
DAZN Iberia CEO Óscar Vilda said the agreements reinforce the platform’s commitment to motorsport across the Iberian Peninsula.
“MotoGP is part of DAZN’s DNA, and we are very proud to extend our relationship with MotoGP to continue bringing the championship to fans in Spain while expanding into Portugal. We are strengthening our commitment to delivering the best sport with the quality, innovation and experience fans expect from DAZN.”
New era under Liberty Media
The agreements were negotiated by MotoGP Sports Entertainment Group (MSEG), the series promoter formerly known as Dorna Sports, which was rebranded after Liberty Media completed its €4.2 billion acquisition of the company in 2024.
MSEG CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta welcomed the renewal, highlighting DAZN’s production quality and growing audience.
“MotoGP coverage on DAZN is comprehensive and high quality. As MotoGP continues to grow, we’re excited to continue working together to expand the sport and deliver an outstanding broadcast experience for fans in Spain and Portugal.”
Calendar changes continue
The rights announcement comes as MotoGP continues reshaping its race calendar.
The championship recently confirmed that the Aragon Grand Prix will remain on the 2027 calendar before MotorLand Aragón becomes an official reserve circuit between 2028 and 2031. Spain currently hosts four MotoGP rounds—Jerez, Barcelona, Aragón and Valencia—with a rotation system expected to create opportunities for new venues.
Meanwhile, Buenos Aires is expected to return to the calendar in 2027, while the future of Portugal’s Algarve International Circuit beyond the current hosting agreement has yet to be confirmed.
