Spark Sport has become the new official New Zealand broadcaster of MotoGP, replacing the incumbent Sky.
The deal covers the 2021 – 2023 seasons of MotoGP, as well as the Moto2 and Moto3 classes of the top-tier global motorcycling competition.
It comes off the back of the sports streaming service securing its first New Zealand Grand Prix and Castrol Toyota Racing Series earlier this year, and Spark Sport's existing Formula 1 and WRC deals.
The streamer would not disclose terms, but the deal is likely small potatoes.
Still, the very fact that Spark is signing new content deals will be of interest to close watchers of the streaming wars.
