ANT1+ will become the home of the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship in Greece from 2026, after securing rights to the series across all classes.
Under the agreement, ANT1+ will provide live and on-demand coverage of the WorldSBK season, including WorldSSP, WorldSPB and WorldWCR. In addition, ANT1 TV will air highlights from each Round, ensuring broad visibility of the Championship across the Greek market.
