Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for dynamic content delivery based on vehicle navigational attributes. An example system includes at least one processor, and memory including instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to determine a relevancy score for respective ones of a plurality of sporting event data items based on navigational attributes of a vehicle, determine whether the navigational attributes correspond to a driving condition, the driving condition indicative of a driving pattern of the vehicle in response to a condition external to the vehicle, and in response to determining that the navigational attributes correspond to the driving condition, present a first sporting event data item of the plurality of sporting event data items in response to a relevancy score of the first sporting event data item corresponding to the driving condition.
