Where to watch the MotoGP World Championship
As one of the most popular motorcycle racing events in the world, the MotoGP World Championship is a must-watch for any racing enthusiast. Whether you’re a seasoned fan or just getting started, there are several ways to watch the championship and stay up to date on all the latest developments.
First, it’s important to understand the basics of the championship itself. The MotoGP World Championship is a series of races held throughout the year, featuring the best motorcycle racers from around the world. Each race takes place on a different track, with points awarded to the top finishers. At the end of the season, the rider with the most points is declared the champion.
Now that you understand the basic format of the championship, let’s take a look at the different ways you can watch it.
How to watch MotoGP – Television
One of the most traditional ways to watch the MotoGP World Championship is on television. In the United States, Fox Sports has recently announced a multiyear agreement to broadcast live coverage of MotoGP events. The network will show every grand prix and every sprint race across Fox Sports 1 and Fox Sports 2, with every race also available on the Fox Sports app.
How to watch MotoGP – Streaming services
In addition to traditional television broadcasts, there are several streaming services that offer live coverage of the MotoGP World Championship. Some popular options include:
– Sling TV Blue: This is currently the least expensive option for watching MotoGP in the US, with plans starting at $45 (or $40 in some markets).
– YouTube TV: This service lets you watch live and on-demand MotoGP races on your TV, computer, phone, or tablet.
– Fubo: This service offers live coverage of the races, as well as on-demand replays and highlights.
– Hulu + Live TV: With this service, you can watch live and on-demand MotoGP races on your computer, phone, or tablet.
– DirecTV Stream: Another option for streaming MotoGP races live.
To find out which streaming service is best for you, consider factors like cost, device compatibility, and available features.
How to watch MotoGP – MotoGP Video Pass
For the ultimate MotoGP experience, consider signing up for the official MotoGP app, which offers a VideoPass subscription. This service provides full LIVE coverage of every GP in HD 1080p@50, from start to finish. You can pause or rewind all the action and resume playback wherever and whenever you want. The app also offers more than 45,000 videos including full GP races, interviews, highlights, technical features, and summaries.
While the MotoGP VideoPass is more expensive than other options, it offers the most comprehensive coverage of the championship.
How to watch MotoGP – Social Media
Finally, don’t forget about social media when it comes to following the MotoGP World Championship. Many riders, teams, and media outlets use platforms like X and Instagram to share updates and insights on the races. You can also find official MotoGP accounts on these platforms, which often share highlights and other content from MotoGP events, press conferences, interviews and behind-the-scenes footage.
Keep in mind that the 2025 MotoGP season will consist of 22 rounds, kicking off in Thailand from February 28 to March 2, and concluding in Valencia from November 14-16. This marks the largest season in MotoGP history. The schedule also features the return of events in Argentina, Brno, and the new track of Balaton Park. Additionally, Saturday’s Sprint Races will provide fans with even more thrilling action during the weekends.

Read MoreWhy choose RTR Sports Marketing
In an era where it is possible to get anywhere with a click, there is a strong temptation to approach teams and properties directly for sponsorship projects.
By doing so, we are convinced that we are shortening the value chain, saving time and money. However, these DYI methods are anything but risk-free and what initially appears to be a competitive advantage soon turns into a problem that is difficult to resolve. That’s why there are agencies. And this is why you should rely on us for your sponsorships.
Save time and money
When first approaching a sponsorship or sports marketing project, it is difficult to know immediately which stakeholders are correct, what the decision flow is, and what the right timelines are for each process. Sports is a very specialized field of action, and fitting effectively into its paths can take a lot of time and therefore money. We, on the other hand, know referents and spheres of action and know who to talk to, when and how. So you are also more effective.
The right information, the right choice
Sports is an immense passion, and for our heart colors we would be willing to do anything. But business is a different business, and it is important to make the best possible strategic decisions based on independent research, statistics and reliable data. A sports marketing and sports sponsorship agency like RTR has an objective, 360-degree picture of the scenario and can tell you what is really best for you: which sport, which athlete, which team. This is because we possess a great deal of data and information on ratings, segmentation and attitudes. Because the numbers don’t lie. Never.
Activations are the beating heart
Activations are the real heart of sports sponsorship. Without them, there remains only a blank sticker on a motorcycle, car or uniform and no contact with the public, no emotional connection, no impact on the bottom line. Then how do you do it? It certainly won’t be the teams or the athletes who will help you leverage sponsorship and enjoy the many marketing rights you have paid for. To bring out the best in a sports marketing project you need an agency that knows how to use sponsorship to engage the fanbase on the Web, to reach out to Shopping Centers, to organize hospitality, to develop B2B and B2C opportunities, and to get “your” athletes in front of millions of potential consumers.
Objective measurements for a certain return
Would you ever go to the dealer who sold you the car and ask if the competitor’s car is better? No, of course. So, how do you expect to get firm measurements of the effectiveness of your sponsorship if you do not rely on someone super partes? At RTR, we have always worked with independent third-party agencies that allow us to know the return on any exposure of your brand on TV and in the media. In addition, we believe in calculating ROI as the ultimate measure of your success-so we can tell you for every penny you spend how much you are making.
Sit back, relax, we’ll take care of it
We have been involved in sports sponsorship and sports marketing for more than 15 years. We are consultants in the sense that our goal is to maximize your investment, but we are also an agency that manages the project from start to finish. We have been doing this since 1995 with passion and professionalism, following three principles that have become cornerstones of our business: independence, verticality and transparency.
I would like to highlight the fact that one of the qualities of RTR is its great ability to approach the sponsorship scenario strategically, together with its passionate attitude, its amazing enthusiasm for solving problems, and its high level of professionalism.

Eurosport is truly delighted with its business relationship with Riccardo Tafà, who has become extremely popular, thanks to his detailed knowledge of the sports marketing sector and his highly diligent attitude to work.
Francois Ribeiro
Commercial Director
Passion and Expertise are the features that I have found in RTR since the very beginning. Serious and reliable professionals but also very helpful, nice and open-mind people, willing to listen and compare different ideas. All the values in which RTR believes make this agency a partner, not just a supplier, a partner with whom we have had the opportunity to achieve significant commercial results in term of success and image.
Luca Pacitto
Head of Communication
We have been working with RTR Sports Marketing for over 10 years. The objectives and the programmes of collaboration continue to be renewed and to grow with mutual satisfaction. I believe RTR is a team of great professionals led by Riccardo Tafà, who I consider a manager of exceptional skills and with a great passion for his work.
Lucio Cecchinello
Team Principal
I have known and worked with Riccardo Tafà since 1995 when we collaborated for the first time on a project for the Williams Formula 1 team. Several clients followed. After leaving Williams to work for Gerhard Berger then owner of the Toro Rosso F1 Team, I turned again to Riccardo to seek his help in finding a tool supplier for the team and Riccardo duly obliged with an introduction to USAG, a partnership with Toro Rosso which endured for five years. I recently started a new role as Group Commercial Director for the renowned Andretti Autosport organisation and I find myself working with Riccardo once again on a number of interesting projects. Why has this relationship with Riccardo endured ? He’s smart, knows the commercial side of sport inside out and back to front and he’s honest and trustworthy. Riccardo Tafà is a “doer” not a “talker”: in over 20 years I have never had a dispute either with him or with a company that he has introduced and each partnership introduced by Riccardo has delivered quantifiable ROI to rights holder and sponsor alike. I can think of no better testimonial of Riccardo’s diligence, knowledge, contact base and hard work than that.
