Expanded broadcast package for 2026 B6HR
AN EXPANDED broadcast package will allow motorsport fans to see more of the action than ever before across the Hi-Tec Oils Bathurst 6 Hour weekend this Easter.
A mixture of both subscription and free-to-air coverage highlights the comprehensive package which includes more than 18 hours of live coverage across the Saturday and Sunday.
Fox Sports and Kayo will broadcast action on both days, on-air from 11:45am through to 17:30pm on Saturday, prior to a full day of action on Sunday commencing at 9:15am and running through to the conclusion of the 10th Bathurst 6 Hour race at 5:30pm. Coverage on Fox and Kayo has increased compared to last year’s event.
Free-to-air viewers will enjoy expanded coverage this year with live coverage on SBS Sport from 1pm-5pm on Saturday, an increase of two hours compared to last year.
SBS will then cover the 6 Hour in its entirety on Sunday with their coverage commencing at 11:00am.
Additionally, SBS On Demand and the Bathurst 6 Hour website will have live streaming coverage of Saturday morning’s action from 7:40am.
International fans will be able to watch via a stream on the Bathurst 6 Hour website.
Every category featured on the 2026 program will receive broadcast coverage on either Saturday or Sunday.
“We’re excited to announce an expanded broadcast package for 2026 and continue the recent growth the Hi-Tec Oils Bathurst 6 Hour has experienced,” said Event Director Sally Parkinson.
“Last year our broadcast reached more than a million people around Australia and more around the world via our streaming package and with more hours on air, more on Fox and Kayo and more airtime on SBS, that number could grow this year.
“We’re thankful to our broadcast partners for their engagement with the event and showcasing the Bathurst region, New South Wales and the event to so many people.”
Further details around the broadcast, including the on-air team, will be announced closer to the event.
