I find MotoGP to be one of the most exciting sports in the world, and apparently I’m not alone. While I’ve always been able to catch some races on TV, I’ve noticed the coverage has expanded significantly over the past few years.

In a hurry? Both CBS and NBC have been investing in MotoGP so any services that provide stations associated with them should do well. We have all the details below but these are our top live TV streaming picks:

Grand Prix motorcycle racing is one of the most exciting events that you can watch on television today. One of the things that make professional motorcycle racing so special is the fact that you can’t actually buy or ride the bikes that competitors use while competing on the roads of Austin, Le Mans, and Silverstone.

Let’s take a closer look at the history of MotoGP, why it attracts such a large audience, and how you can watch it without the need to have a cable subscription.

All About MotoGP

The Grand Prix motorcycle circuit was officially established in 1949, which was when the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) was created. This governing body allowed riders to contest a series of races under a unified set of rules and regulations.

In 2002, MotoGP was created to serve as the highest level of competition among those who were pursuing an FIM World Championship. The other three classes are Moto2, Moto3, and MotoE. In 2019, the MotoE class was created to allow those who preferred to use electric motorcycles a chance to compete against other elite racers.

In the MotoGP division, bike engines can have a capacity of no more than 800 cc and carry no more than 6.9 gallons of gas in their fuel tanks. Prior to the creation of the MotoGP, the largest bikes had engine sizes of 500 cc. There is no limit to the number of cylinders a bike can have in its engine. However, as a practical matter, most bikes have four cylinders as opposed to two.

If there are any rules disputes, teams and manufacturers can appeal to FIM for clarification. In the event that this isn’t enough to resolve the dispute, the matter can be brought to Dorna Sports for a final ruling. Dorna Sports owns the commercial rights to the Grand Prix of motorcycle racing.

Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha are three of the top companies that build bikes for the various MotoGP events. The tires for these vehicles are almost always supplied by Michelin. Dunlop supplies tires for the Moto2 and Moto3 events, and companies such as Augusta, GasGas, and KTM build bikes for those who compete at the Moto2 and Moto3 levels.

Current State of MotoGP

In 2023, Francesco Bagnaia won the MotoGP rider championship while Ducati won the constructer’s championship. Valentino Rossi is considered to be one the greatest riders of the 21st century having won nine championships. However, many would consider Mike Hallwood to be the greatest of all time. Hallwood competed primarily in the 1960s and won over 80% of the races that he entered in 1966.

How to Stream MotoGP

There is no one place to stream MotoGP. It depends upon where you are and very often what the event is.

United States

Both Paramount Global (formerly ViacomCBS) and NBCUniversal present MotoGP.

Paramount Global

CBS Sports offers limited coverage of various motorsports events throughout the year. Generally speaking, most events that are shown on CBS are also available for streaming on Paramount+ at the same time. However, in some cases, races may be shown on this service on a slight delay. Other events air on CBS and CBS Sports Network.

NBCUniversal

NBC broadcasts a handful of MotoGP events as they take place. If you have access to Peacock Premium, it should be possible to watch these events through that streaming service.

Until recently, most MotoGP races would air on a tape delay on NBCSN in the United States. However, NBCSN no longer exists, and most shows, live events, and other content that aired there has migrated to USA. As with the main NBC station, anything that airs on USA can generally be seen on Peacock.

Live TV Streaming Services

Philo doesn’t offer either NBC or CBS channels so doesn’t much help watching MotoGP. Sling TV does offer NBC channels so it might be worth a look. The following services offer both:

  • Fubo (formerly FuboTV): Offers 185+ broadly-selected TV channels for $79.99/month with a distinct sports orientation. (Fubo review)
  • DIRECTV: The base plan comes with 90+ channels including all your local affiliates. (DIRECTV review)
  • Hulu + Live TV: Gives you 95+ live channels along with Disney+ and ESPN+ for $82.99/month. And, of course, it includes the outstanding Hulu on-demand library. (Hulu + Live TV review)
  • YouTube TV: Comes with 100+ live channels for $82.99/month.

Outside of the United States

In Canada, most MotoGP races are shown on REV TV, and in many cases, these events are broadcast live. BT Sports shows MotoGP in the UK. If you are watching MotoGP in Australia, you’ll do so on Fox Sports, and in Brazil, you can catch your favorite motorcycle races on ESPN.

Finally, you can likely watch your favorite motorcycle races and shows on websites such as Motorsport.tv and MotoGP Video Pass. These services are typically made available to viewers in most countries throughout the world.

Devices to Live Stream MotoGP

All the services above support the most popular streaming devices:

  • Amazon Fire TV
  • Android mobile
  • Apple TV
  • Chromecast
  • iOS (iPhone,iPad)
  • Roku
  • Samsung TV
  • Web browsers.

Except for DIRECTV, all the services support Android TV-powered TVs, LG and VIZIO TVs, and Xbox gaming systems. Some also support the PlayStation.

Our streaming reviews have complete details.

Our Choice

After testing several streaming services for MotoGP, I found Fubo to be the standout option. Its reliable streaming quality and extensive channel package—offering over 150 channels—make it ideal for racing fans. I specifically liked how it includes CBS and NBC channels, which broadcast MotoGP events regularly. The DVR feature is top-notch, allowing you to record and rewatch races at your convenience. If you’re after a service that’s solid for live sports and offers value for money, Fubo is a top pick for MotoGP coverage.

FAQs

Are any MotoGP races free to watch?

You can watch free highlights of races after they conclude by visiting MotoGP.com. However, for the most part, you only get free access to professional motorcycle racing events by signing up to a streaming service. In some European countries, races are broadcast on over-the-air stations that you can access with an antenna.
