“To bring such substantial fandom into one place is hugely exciting and we’re immensely proud to be the new Home of Bikes in the UK and Ireland.

“With all two-wheel motorsport under one single brand it allows us to grow and drive a dedicated bikes community and establish TNT Sports as the go-to destination for the best motorbikes coverage across all platforms.

“The new TNT Sports Bikes social profile will be the ultimate storytelling platform for every round from every championship with engaging content to keep fans captivated throughout the season.
