Burlington, Ontario — REV TV YOUR MOTORSPORTS & AUTOMOTIVE DESTINATION 24/7 is really excited to have the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup represented on the channel this year. The Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup has been the launching pad for so many future Champions over the last 15 years, and we can’t wait to see who’ll shine in their 16th.
Riding Moto3 specification KTM RC 250 R 4-stroke machines across a 14-race, seven-round season featuring some of the most classic Grand Prix circuits of Europe, the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup is a crucible out of which greatness is born. Their track record speaks for itself with the MotoGP™ paddock’s Johann Zarco, Brad Binder, Joan Mir, Jorge Martin, Enea Bastianini and Pedro Acosta, as well as reigning WorldSBK Champion Toprak Razgatlıoğlu, among the list of impressive former Rookies.
“The Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup is truly a birthplace of motorcycle racing champions and we are thrilled to add coverage of all 14 rounds to REV TV,” said Mike Garrow, President of REV TV. “Having the Rookies on REV is a great compliment to our MotoGP and WorldSBK coverage, which features a number of riders who cut their teeth in the ultra-competitive series, the future of fast rides on REV TV” he added.
“The Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup is one of the biggest and most successful paths on the Road to MotoGP, with so many former Rookies having gone on to incredible success in World Championship motorcycle racing. We’re delighted fans in Canada will be able to follow the progress of the Champions of the future on REV TV and enjoy the incredible racing in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup each and every round.”
Coverage of the 2022 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup begins on May 8th as a part of our Monster Moto Mother’s Day Weekend Marathon, which will feature the first four rounds of the series back-to-back at 8PM ET following a day full of two-wheeled action as we recap the MotoGP and WorldSBK seasons so far.
