“Australia has a thriving
motorcycle community with very loyal MotoGP fans and we always enjoy our visit
to Phillip Island, one of the most beautiful tracks on the calendar.“There will
be more coverage of the action on track for our fans as we have two broadcast
partners now who are supporting MotoGP and they will work with us to continue
to grow our sport in Australia.”
Network Ten Head of Sport, David Barham, commented: “We are

taste of our MotoGP coverage with the first two rounds complete for the 2014
season, but this is just the beginning of what will be a transformational
three-year period for the sport on FOX SPORTS. Not only will fans see every
race from every Grands Prix including all championship races, support
categories, practice, and qualifying events LIVE with no interruptions during the
