DAZN To Launch In Spain In '19 With Rights To MotoGP, Premier League

DAZN will launch in Spain in '19. The streaming service on Tuesday unveiled MotoGP and the Premier League as the first content to be made available on the platform in Spain. Spanish fans will be able to watch these sports anytime, anywhere, with more sports that will be available to be confirmed before launch. MotoGP awarded DAZN the exclusive Spanish broadcast rights from '19-22 for every session of MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3 and MotoE. The Premier League awarded DAZN exclusive broadcast rights in Spain for all games from '19-20 to '21-22, more than 235 live games a season (DAZN). DIGITAL TV EUROPE's Andrew McDonald reported Spain will mark DAZN’s eighth country launch (DIGITAL TV EUROPE, 11/13). MOTORSPORT's Jamie Klein reported DAZN replaces pay-TV channel Movistar as the exclusive rights holder of MotoGP in Spain. It will also broadcast World Superbike and the FIM CEV series as part of its agreement with Dorna. The move "comes in the wake of Movistar splitting with the factory Yamaha team," which revealed Monster as its title sponsor for next year (MOTORSPORT, 11/13).
