BSI secure SGP TV highlights deal.

TVP, Poland's national terrestrial broadcaster, has signed a two year agreement with BSI to broadcast highlights of the world championship FIM Speedway Grand Prix Series (SGP). Exclusive live coverage of the event will continue to be broadcast on the country's leading pay TV network, Canal+.

The landmark deal ensures TVP will broadcast delayed highlights of every round of the SGP Series in 2005 and 2006 on a Saturday evening after each event.

Commenting on this exciting deal, John Postlethwaite, Chief Executive, BSI, said: "TVP is Poland's national broadcaster and we are thrilled to secure highlights of the SGP Series on this high profile station. We now have excellent live coverage across Poland's leading pay TV network, Canal+, as well as a strong highlights package with the national broadcaster."

"The world championship continues to go from strength to strength in Poland and this deal further enhances the coverage and awareness of the Series throughout the country."

"Speedway is one of Poland's leading sports and with two sell-out events and three Polish riders competing for the World Championship we expect interest in the Grand Prix to continue to grow."

The first event of the nine round 2005 FIM Speedway Grand Prix Series begins on April 30th with the FIM European Speedway Grand Prix at the Olympic Stadium, Wroclaw, Poland.
