Eurosport is the largest European sports satellite and cable network available in 54 countries and broadcasting in 18 different languages.
Eurosport offers viewers varied sports such as UEFA Champions League football, the Paris Dakar Rally, the Olympics, cycling, tennis, wintersports and youth sports like skating and surfing.
It is often provided as the sole sports channel by CATV operators. In the UK and Ireland many operators, mainly analogue ones, often promise "satellite sports channels" and provide Eurosport and Extreme Sports TV. The channel is popular, and when NTL replaced Eurosport on their Dublin analogue system with CNBC, there was outrage among the Irish tabloid press.
Eurosport is shown in most countries across Europe, with the commentary in the local language, but not nessacerily local advertising.
Eurosport is part of the TF1 Group.
Currently there are three channels broadcats under the Eurosport name: Eurosport, Eurosport 2 and Eurosport News.
