Liberty Media also got its hands on MotoGP

The goal è to have the two most important motor series in the world

.

According to the Financial Times, Liberty Media, which already ownsFormula 1, has reportedly decided to bring MotoGP in-house as well, so as to have the world’s two most important motorsport series under one roof. A decidedly strong move on the part of Liberty Media, a company headed by multibillionaire John Malone and active in telecommunications and entertainment.

Liberty Media has beaten out a lot of competition

Negotiations are reportedly already well underway, so much so that there is talk of imminent white smoke. Liberty Media has reportedly put a figure close to four billion euros on the table for the acquisition of Dorna Sports, the Iberian company that, in addition to the rights to World Championship, also manages the rights to Superbike. Liberty Media reportedly beat off competition from other major groups interested, specifically TKO and Qatar Sports Investments (already the owner of PSG).

The position of the antitrust

to be understood.

In short, after reviving F1, Liberty Media è ready to make MotoGP another great global spectacle. All that is awaited at this point is the official announcement of the deal, which could come as early as next week. Also to be understood is what will happen with antitrust, especially at the level of TV rights and broadcasting. Undoubtedly, Liberty Media’s move is about to revolutionize, once again, the world of motorsports.
