We’re delighted to extend our partnership with DAZN as we continue to grow the Extreme H World Cup on a global stage,
said Ali Russell, Managing Director of Extreme H.
Ahead of its comeback later this month, DAZN and the FIA Extreme H World Cup have prolonged their worldwide television alliance to provide no-cost broadcasts for the hydrogen-fuelled racing series.
DAZN Extends Global Broadcast Partnership
Under the updated contract, DAZN will broadcast every piece of Extreme H content globally in the English language, granting viewers around the planet complimentary entry to the series during its sophomore campaign. Widening Extreme H’s worldwide television footprint and boosting recognition for hydrogen racing via easy-to-use digital streaming platforms are the primary goals of this collaboration.
Running from 29th to 31st October 2026, the FIA-approved event goes back to Qiddiya City in Saudi Arabia for a three-day racing schedule hosted at a custom-built track framed by the Tuwaiq Mountains. DAZN benefits from this prolongation by bolstering its racing catalogue and expanding its collection of worldwide athletic content offered on its digital network.
Shay Segev, CEO of DAZN Group, said, The FIA Extreme H World Cup is an exciting addition to DAZN’s growing motorsport portfolio, and we’re pleased to continue our partnership as the competition enters its next phase of growth.
