WIGE
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WIGE Media is a German TV production company in Cologne, Germany. The main focus of WIGE lies in Motorsports, but also includes noteworthy projects in Football, Snowboarding, and the 2005 World Games. The services provided by WIGE Media include Timekeeping, TV production and postproduction with both ENG and OB-facilities, a sports video archive as well as event services and marketing of television broadcast rights.
One of the key elements of the WIGE Media service portfolio is the production of motor sports events on German (and neighbouring countries') race tracks. In this capacity, WIGE produced the Formula One World Feed from the Nürburgring, Hockenheimring and Hungary's Hungaroring before the FOM centralized the production of the World Feed in 2007. Nevertheless, WIGE is still providing German private broadcaster RTL Television with additional services for their Formula One coverage.
