WEC news will also be featured in an increasingly popular 10-minute slot on RTL in the middle of the F1 qualifying magazine show.
The race will also be broadcast LIVE in Austria (ORF Sport) and France (La Chaine Equipe) and in the UK (BT Sport), with further race coverage (not live) in Belgium (RTBF), Netherlands (RTL), Spain (TVE), Switzerland (SRG SSR) and United Kingdom (ITV4) – check the TV distribution list for updates and exact timings.
The combined reach of the two German free-to-air channels is 144 million viewers, with Porsche’s win at Le Mans increasing interest further as the famous German marque goes head to head with Toyota once again.
