Over the past 12 months, the motorsport industry has needed to quickly adapt to a world where on-site productions have been challenging and with limits.
Grabyo’s remote production capabilities have allowed organizations to seamlessly transition to delivering digital content from the safety of their own homes, delivering engaging experiences to fans virtually, without compromising on quality.
The priority for race event organizers and rights holders has been maintaining a connection to fans who have not been able to attend events in person.
Grabyo’s cloud-based live production tools have allowed the likes of NASCAR and MotoGP to deliver live content, highlights and behind-the-sce content across multiple platforms, giving attendees increased access to races like never before.
Here are some examples of how NASCAR, MotoGP and Motorsport.tv used Grabyo to deliver its content completely through the cloud.
