Here in the UK it was a pay channel until last year when it became free, it covers all the WEC events live, well perhaps not Le mans and it has also had quite a bit of other GT racing

Hindy has a Spanish speaking equivalent?

That's true but the RLM guys aren't do all of the races. Are they? Did i miss the memo haha

Id rather listen to the Japanese broadcast of SuperGT. Subtitles would do wonders for it though. Any Motors TV at all is better than not having it.

When I first read this, I figured it was going to be limited in availability and only then be available in the full sports extra extra packages. Positive move in the correct direction nonetheless.

I hope they come to Australia.

Looks like no coverage of the Daytona 24 this weekend on Fox Sports in Australia whereas last year the entire TUSCC was shown.

A victim of the saturation of Fox Sports Motorsport by V8 Supercars?

As far as I know, no. Andrés Agulla and Alex Pombo are great IndyCar announcers, but they are ESPN diehards and I think they aren't as knowledgable about sports car racing.

The Fox Sports announcers are Nascar experts, although Diego Mej�*a was in IndyCar before. They announce TUSC, but I don't think of them as especially knowledgable.

The word on the street is "we'll try"

Well the japanese broadcasts are still "around" if you catch my drift

When Motors used to have SGT back in the day they had Marc Cole right? So maybe better Motors doesn't have the series back...

Anyway, of course Motors is better than nothing at all, it's just the terrible pixelation you need to endure to watch it. But honestly they've improved a lot in recent years in terms of sportscar coverage, few seasons ago they only had handful left but now they're back to bigger business

I watch on a laptop originally designed by something that had a tail, laid eggs, and was very likely wiped out by an asteroid. Pixilation is part of my existence lol.

I think Tony Rivera was good in the ALMS days and is decent enough for TUSCC, I'm glad it's him and not Jorge Koechlin who proved to be completely clueless when they brought him to cover Grand Am in the last few years.
