Eurosport India has acquired streaming rights for MotoGP from 2024 to 2026.
Fans in India can watch all the MotoGP races live on Eurosport and on the Discovery+ app this year. Eurosport India has signed a three-year deal with MotoGP commercial rights holder Dorner, running from 2024 to 2026, for the Indian and South Asian region.
MotoGP was earlier streamed live on Eurosport from 2020 to 2022. However, the championship moved to JioCinema last year. While F1 still remains without a broadcasting deal here in India, this latest move ensures MotoGP will continue to be broadcasted on TV.

Eurosport India acquires MotoGP broadcasting rights
All MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 sessions will be streamed live on Eurosport and Discovery+ in India.
The 2024 season kicks off with the Qatar GP on March 8-10. The calendar features a total of 21 races, including the Indian GP which will be held at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC) on September 20-22.
The inaugural running of the Indian GP saw 1,11,000 attendees across the weekend. While the BIC layout proved to be a hit with the riders, the scorching temperatures also made it one of the most demanding races on the calendar. There are still plenty of issues to iron out for the upcoming 2024 edition, but Dorna stresses that India remains a key market for MotoGP.
“We are delighted to welcome Eurosport as the TV broadcast partner for MotoGP in Bharat. This collaboration between Eurosport and MotoGP is not just about bringing the world’s premier motorcycle racing to our screens; it’s a testament to the growing appetite for international sports in Bharat,” said Anurag Singh Thakur, Union Minister, Ministry of Information and Broadcast and Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports.
“We are thrilled to join synergies with Eurosport for the broadcast of MotoGP Bharat. This partnership marks a significant step towards giving MotoGP fans in India and worldwide a thrilling experience via Eurosport’s extensive linear coverage of the sport and their commitment to deliver high quality viewing experience. We look forward to working together and expanding the reach of the sport to existing and new fans alike,” added Pushkar Nath Srivastava, CEO of Fairstreet Sports – promoters of the Indian GP.
Discovery+ subscription
Along with the Eurosport TV broadcast, fans can also stream the races live on the Discovery+ app. Subscriptions are available for Rs 199 monthly or Rs 399 annually.
