MotoAmerica airing Superbike racing on VICE TV was not on my 2026 bingo card, but here we are. The championship is celebrating 50 years of superbike racing, and part of that celebration involves finding new ways to watch the racing.
Coverage kicks off live on Saturday, April 18, and Sunday, April 19. The collaboration will deliver nine Superbike rounds from across the United States, showcasing elite international talent, intense head-to-head rivalries, and high-stakes competition—all within an environment that celebrates five decades of racing history.
“MotoAmerica Superbike competition is pure racing — authentic and uncompromising,” said Chuck Aksland, Chief Operating Officer of MotoAmerica. “Celebrating ‘50 Years Of Superbike Racing,’ we’re excited to bring our premier class to VICE TV, a platform known for dynamic and edgy sports programming, and reflecting the same raw energy that defines our series.
The 2026 MotoAmerica Superbike season on VICE TV delivers the complete race calendar, totaling 20 races across nine rounds with access to over 40 million U.S. households via major cable and satellite outlets, bringing new and existing fans closer to the speed, intensity, and action of Superbike in its golden anniversary year.
Live competition is at the core of VICE TV’s expanding sports strategy,” said Pete Gaffney, President of VICE TV. “MotoAmerica Superbike embodies everything we look for—speed, intensity, elite athletes, and real stakes. In its milestone 50th year, this championship brings a level of authenticity and adrenaline that aligns perfectly with our audience.”
The only thing that I find a tad strange about this announcement is that only the Superbike racing will be shown. Of all the major motorcycle racing championships—think MotoGP and WorldSBK—the support classes in MotoAmerica carry more weight than the support classes in other series. But I'm not complaining. I'll always support more live racing on our screens.
