FOX will launch a dedicated streaming service for sports fans by the end of the year to replace the recently discontinued VENU Sports. The new service will include the FOX network for all IndyCar races, along with FOX Sports 1 and 2 for practices, qualifying, and the Indy NXT series. CEO Lachlan Murdoch announced this during the quarterly earnings call on Tuesday. The aim is to reach consumers outside the traditional cable bundle, catering to cord-cutters and cord-nevers, while also offering streaming options for cable subscribers through the FOX Sports app on various devices. Despite the setback caused by the VENU Sports demise, FOX is exploring options like Tubi for major sporting events and bridging solutions until their new streaming service is operational.
