Motorsport.tv, the flagship television channel and OTT platform of the motorsport and automotive titan Motorsport Network, is pleased to announce that its Motorsport Report programme has received several distinctions in the 39th Annual Telly Awards.
The Telly Awards honour excellence in video and television across all screens and are judged by leaders from video platforms, television and streaming networks, agencies and production companies.
Motorsport Report,which brings viewers the most important racing news stories of each day, has been awarded and recognised for its content quality and production value in the "general news", "general sports" and "general automotive" for television categories.
The programme is produced in Motorsport Network's Miami headquarters by a team comprised of media veterans including Emmy-winner Robert Lyon, Senior Director of Video Production & Publishing,and host Julia Piquet, whose vast knowledge and insight in the sport and industry is contributed to by her legacy. Piquet's father, Nelson Piquet, has been ranked among the greatest Formula One racers in various motorsport polls, and her brother Nelson Piquet Jr continues to establish himself as a racer to watch, as well.
"Our approach is to cover motorsports with more depth and authenticity than anyone else, and the 'Motorsport Report' franchise does exactly that", says Kevin Annison, President of Motorsport.tv.
"We have a lot of passionate fans coming to us for regular news updates to stay up to date and in the know, and our fast paced production and shooting style offers fans that information in a quick and consumable fashion."
