SKY SPORTS has announced it will screen all races from each round of the 2006 and 2007 British Superbike seasons. The news comes one week after ITV1 declared it will screen the 2006 British Superbike Championship live.
It means you’ll have the choice to watch Rizla Suzuki riders Shane Byrne and James Haydon fight for the 2006 title on two of the most popular terrestrial and satellite channels.
Sky Sports will show delayed coverage from the Superbikes, the Supersport, 125cc, Superstock and Virgin Mobile Yamaha R6 Cup at each of the 13 scheduled events, starting at Brands Hatch on Sunday 26 March.
Sky Sports has followed the British Superbike Championship for the last three years and will schedule its coverage on the evening of each Round. Alongside this deal, ITV1 will show live coverage of the British Superbike class.
Announcing the new arrangement, Tony Partis, Managing Director of Dorna UK Ltd said: "Everybody connected with the Bennetts British Superbike Championship is very pleased to continue an association with Sky Sports. They have been good to work with, built a loyal following for the sport, and will now show a greater depth of coverage than before. Their professionalism and enthusiasm will not only benefit the Bennetts British Superbike Championship but also the compelling support races.
“The new television arrangements are a testament to the hard work put in by the teams and riders to provide such enthralling entertainment for the viewers."
Stuart Higgs, Events Director of series organizer MCRCB Events Ltd said: "I'm delighted that Sky Sports will continue to follow the Championship, taking them into a fourth consecutive year. Their depth of coverage, in particular of the supporting categories, is very important and of course very popular with our fan base and teams alike."
Sue Ashworth, Manager Production and Commercial Development at British Sky Broadcasting Ltd said: “We have built a loyal following for Superbikes and will now show all the races from each event giving greater depth of coverage for our British Superbike fans.”
