The World Superbike Championship at Estoril on TV and via live stream: Everything starts an hour later

Since Eurosport withdrew from broadcasting the series, fans of the Superbike World Championship in German-speaking countries officially have only two options left: ServusTV and the official website, WorldSBK.com. But please note: for the penultimate race weekend at the Circuito do Estoril in Portugal, there is a one-hour time difference to take into account!

Although ServusTV’s linear broadcasting in Germany and Switzerland ceased at the end of 2023, both countries still have access to the digital platform ServusTV On, which will continue to broadcast the Superbike World Championship extensively, free of charge and in HD via live stream in 2026. The programmes will be presented by Philipp Krummholz, with Stefan Nebel providing expert commentary. From the tenth round of the season at the Cremona Circuit, the free practice sessions for the top category will be shown on Friday at 11.15 am and 3.55 pm. On Saturday and Sunday, the continuous live streams of all categories will begin at 10.35 am and 11.55 am.

In Austria, coverage will generally remain as usual via linear broadcasting. On Saturday, the broadcast begins with a preview and a repeat of the Superpole at 3.40 pm. However, the second race on Sunday will not be shown live, as the private broadcaster is prioritising the DTM season finale from Hockenheim. The Superpole Race and Race 2 will be shown as a repeat immediately afterwards, from 6.07 pm.

The signal for the domestic market is provided by the Austrian commercial broadcaster to German and Swiss providers, amongst others. Through the granting of secondary rights, coverage may therefore also be available via providers not mentioned here. For example, the specialist channel ServusTV Motorsport has been available since June 2021; in Germany, it is broadcast exclusively via Telekom’s Magenta TV, but is not included in the basic package.

Dorna itself will once again offer the most comprehensive coverage in 2026 via its live stream on its own website, worldsbk.com. The video pass for the remaining two events is available for €9.99 and includes not only all broadcasts – including all practice sessions – but also access to the complete video archive.
