They don’t know the fixture list yet it’s pretty obvious they don’t have package available.

Not ideal is it?

Netflix rumored to be buying Warner brothers was on ITV news, wonder if discovery is included in the deal and where would speedway fit in ?

I would suspect it would fit nicely in the bin 👍😂

Is BSN still a thing? Season passes were on sale around this time last year and people were able to buy them as Christmas gifts 🎄

It is pretty clear / likely that no fixtures will be announced until after anything is confirmed.

In the meantime, yes BSN "is a thing" and for a Christmas treat why wait till March, we're going to Australia for the Aussie champs and the FIM Oceana championship. £44.99 for 6 meetings. Fun for all the family and high possibility of Greg Blair fighting a kangaroo/snake/spider. You don't get that on TNT.

Netflix are buying Warner Brothers.!! does that not include Discovery.

No,from what I have read,discovery is staying with Warner Bros.as is TNT USA,but Netflix is taking TNT international.All this could take up to 12-18 months to finalise,so I guess a lot of things are in limbo for now.

I gather Paramount are entering the fray for Warner Bros..

There may be a difficulty for Netflix over competition, there are those who think it would make Netflix too big.

May even be breaking competition rules.

Probably the most likely outcome is that there will be no league speedway on tv for at least two years.

Yes, I believe you are right about that.

However it may be that Speedway is finished by then, unless something is done to improve things. :sad:

This has absolutely nothing to do with speedway for the foreseeable future. This will drag on for months if not years, because with it being such a big takeover everyone and their mother in the film world will have their say on it.  In any case existing contracts will continue. Hey if Netflix can take a shine to speedway in the same way as F1, then that isn't a bad thing.

Yeah, probably won't happen, but Drive to Survive has absolutely brought new fans into F1 in massive massive numbers, it has transformed F1. Probably won't happen, but if we say that about everything nothing will ever happen.

Didn't WBD say they were going to do something similar when they announced their "new era"?
