LE MANS 24 HOURS BECOMES 48 ON MOTORS TV!!!



Motors TV (broadcast in 32 European countries to 16 millions homes and in four languages: English,
French, German and Greek) has been confirmed as the exclusive pan-European broadcaster for the Le
Mans 24 Hours for 2006 and 2007. The channel will be putting in place a unique and never before seen
broadcasting operation between 12th and 18th June 2006.

The ‘High Speed Television’, will offer MORE THAN 48 HOURS OF UNCUT AND LIVE COVERAGE!

The organisers of the Le Mans 24 Hours, the Automobile Club de l’Ouest, have confirmed: “Following the coannouncement made with the Canal + group, the A.C.O. is delighted to have reached an agreement with
Motors TV, which will be the exclusive pan-European broadcaster. The A.C.O. on its side will significantly
improve its production set-up and will provide for the first time ever a live coverage of the two qualifying
sessions at the end of each day, which Motors TV will broadcast uncut and exclusively throughout Europe.”

The Le Mans week on Motors TV will start as early as Monday and Tuesday with the set-up of a TV studio
on the Jacobins square, to closely follow the technical inspections which traditionally take place in
downtown Le Mans. Drivers, team managers and many guests stars will be interviewed by Motors TV
journalists. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings, Motors TV will broadcast the qualifying sessions of
this, the 74th edition of the 24 Hours, and finally, between Saturday morning 9h00 and Sunday 18h00 (CET),
the channel will dedicate 100% of its time to the preparation and running of the race!

In total more than 48 hours of live coverage will be dedicated to the Le Mans 24 Hours, a unique set-up
around the world, which will require a commitment never seen before. Thanks to Motors TV, the fans of the
most famous race in the world will not miss a single moment during ‘Le Mans week’!

In addition, during the weeks building up to the event, Motors TV will air some programmes illustrating the
‘legend’ of the Le Mans 24 Hours.

With this significant addition of the Le Mans 24 Hours to its programming in 2006, Motors TV confirms it
leading position as the network for endurance sportscar racing. The network will also broadcast the
American Le Mans Series and the full European Le Mans Series.
