Derek Chang Secures Liberty’s Triumph as MotoGP Takeover Receives EU Approval

The European Union has given the green light to Liberty Media’s acquisition of MotoGP, marking a historic moment where both MotoGP and Formula 1 will be under the same ownership. This monumental deal, proposed in April 2024, has finally received approval after a thorough examination by the European Commission to prevent monopolistic pricing practices.

With Liberty Media set to purchase an 84% stake from the current owners, Bridgepoint Group and the Ezpeleta family, excitement is brewing within the motorsport community. Derek Chang, President and CEO of Liberty Media, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership with MotoGP, highlighting the sport’s growth potential and global appeal.

The acquisition also includes the World Superbikes series, further solidifying Liberty’s presence in the motorsport industry. Notable figures such as Chase Carey and Sean Bratches are poised to join MotoGP’s governing board, signaling potential changes in the management structure.

As the transition unfolds, speculations arise about the direction that Liberty Media will steer MotoGP towards. Marketing strategies are expected to take center stage, following the successful blueprint established in Formula 1 with initiatives like the ‘Drive to Survive’ documentary series on Netflix.

The motorsport world is abuzz with anticipation for the upcoming changes under Liberty’s ownership, with fans and industry insiders alike eager to witness the evolution of MotoGP under new management. Stay tuned for more updates as the deal is set to be finalized on July 3rd or earlier, promising a new era for the premier motorcycle racing championship.
