Dorna Sports has extended its collaboration with Vislink to supply RF on-board and wireless camera systems for all 22 MotoGP races through the end of 2027. This renewal continues a relationship that began in 2003, adapting to the fast-paced and challenging environment of MotoGP broadcasting.
Meeting the Challenges of MotoGP Broadcasting
MotoGP coverage requires robust technology capable of handling motorbikes reaching speeds above 220 mph and enduring intense vibrations. Vislink’s solutions not only deliver live footage from the motorbikes themselves but also provide wireless feeds from pit lanes, paddocks, and airborne cameras, enhancing the overall viewing experience with diverse angles.
Industry Leaders Reflect on Partnership and Future Prospects
Vislink’s senior vice president of global sales and support, Raj Kotecha, expressed his enthusiasm for the ongoing partnership:
“MotoGP is something that has been very close to my heart since the very start and I am immensely proud to continue to work with our friends at Dorna to continue to grow this incredible sport”
– Raj Kotecha, Senior Vice President of Global Sales & Support.
Dorna’s head of global technology, Sergi Sendra, also highlighted the significance of the renewed agreement:
“The new agreement with our partner Vislink allows us to continue our incredible journey together giving our fans the chance to experience all the amazing wireless live action from our MotoGP venues anywhere in the world”
– Sergi Sendra, Head of Global Technology at Dorna.
Implications for Fans and the Sport’s Future
This extended MotoGP RF camera partnership underlines Vislink’s crucial role in delivering high-quality live broadcasts that capture the excitement and speed of MotoGP racing. By enhancing wireless camera coverage from multiple vantage points, the agreement promises to deepen fan engagement worldwide and support the sport’s ongoing growth over the next several seasons.
