UK sports programming supplier Sunset+Vine has won the contract to distribute the Formula 1 magazine show, Inside Grand Prix. Sunset+Vine will team up again with German production company RTV on the programme.
"We pride ourselves on a high level of repeat business and so are delighted to be teaming up with RTV for the sixth straight year, “ said Nina Scales, head of Sales and Marketing at Sunset+Vine. “RTV boasts more than 15 years of experience covering F1, and offer unrivalled access to the teams. The show has proved very popular across the world, not just with dedicated F1 enthusiasts, but with novices to the sport too."
Oliver Bauss, CEO of RTV GmbH, added: “Sunset+Vine has an extensive distribution network, understands the sports programming market and has a renowned ability to generate financial returns.”
Produced to coincide with each of the 17 Grands Prix in 2009, the series will offer exclusive F1 material, including comprehensive race previews, close-up interviews, driver and team profiles, behind-the-scenes analysis, technical innovations and explanations, legends of the past, and the latest from the pits. In 2008, the programme was shown by 23 broadcasters, including CCTV (China) CNBC (Pan Europe and Asia), RTBF (Belgium), Network 10 (Australia), and Channel News Asia.
