THE rumours are true: Motorsport 360 is coming to Fox Sports and Kayo Sports in 2026.
The announcement came amid the official launch of the Supercars season in Sydney on Tuesday, with CEO James Warburton revealing it will be a weekly AFL 360/NRL 360-style show, devoted to motorsport.
The subscription television broadcaster and streamer has committed to producing 43 episodes this year, which would likely see it run from late February to mid-December.
Further details are expected to be announced by Fox Sports, including hosts, duration, plus which day and what time it will be shown and released each week.
It’s widely expected that now-former Supercars commentator Mark Skaife will be one of the show’s hosts.
It won’t be the first time the network has produced a weekly program involving Supercars, with the Inside Supercars panel show forming a core part of its initial offering when it became the championship’s primary broadcast rights holder in 2015.
However, the new show will not have Supercars at the controls.
“I think part of the criticism in the past when we’ve done things like Inside Supercars, or had those type of programs, is that we’ve made them. So we’re not making it,” Warburton told V8 Sleuth.
“Fox Sports is making it, and of course they will work with us and with teams and drivers and everything else.
“But ultimately, it’s not our show so they will make the suitable announcements in the coming weeks.
“I think that the important thing, is that on an annualised basis it’s going to be 43 shows, which gives that commitment to whether it’s Supercars or Formula 1 or MotoGP or any other form of racing,” he said.
“It’s great for the motorsport community.”
The show will be the first weekly general motorsport show on either mainstream free-to-air or subscription television channels since the demise of RPM in 2020, and the first for Fox since the end of Speed News Australia in 2012.
