The pay-per-view channel Eurosport (TF1 group) thus recovers its monopoly position in France, but also in Belgium where RTL Sport also stops the free broadcast of MotoGP in 2013. Eurosport will broadcast the tests, the qualifications and the three races (Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP). Only the French Grand Prix, which will take place on May 19 on the Bugatti circuit in Le Mans, could be co-broadcast "in clear" on NT1.

Only available by satellite, cable, ADSL and TNT pay, Eurosport claims 9 million subscribers in France, or "60% of French households equipped with TV", ensures the channel.
