From a press release issued by AMA Pro Racing:

ESPN2 TO TELECAST 24 HOURS OF ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING FROM 2004 AMA CHEVROLET MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP

PICKERINGTON, Ohio (May 12, 2004) — AMA Pro Racing is pleased to announce that ESPN2 will devote 24 hours of original programming to the 2004 AMA Chevrolet Motocross Championship, beginning with two hours of coverage from the season opener, this weekend at the Hangtown Motocross Classic in Sacramento, Calif.

All of ESPN2’s coverage of the series will be shown within one week of the race, on desirable weekend timeslots with at least one re-air of each telecast. One-hour shows will be devoted to 125- and 250-class action, which are set to be aired back-to-back for added continuity.

Carrying over from the network’s popular AMA Supercross telecast team, will be Cameron Steele, Todd Harris and pit reporter Jamie Little, with occasional substitutions as the season progresses.

“It’s great to continue AMA Pro Racing’s association with ESPN, the worldwide leader in sports television,” said John Farris, AMA Pro Racing vice president of commercial development. “As in recent years, the content of each show will not only focus on the intense racing, but also feature the colorful personalities, and the motocross scene, that make AMA Motocross unique.”

Returning in 2004 will be key series television sponsors Suzuki, Honda and Chevrolet.

ESPN2 is in nearly 87 million U.S. households, but the AMA Motocross Championship coverage is also distributed internationally to Latin and Central America, Africa, Israel and the Pacific Rim, which comprises more than 100 countries around the world.
