Don't have a cable subscription to use the Fox app...
It's geoblocked. Unless your ip address says you are outside the United States you can't watch on IMSA.com.

Fox is forcing eyeballs to their app.

I am cancelling my cable this week, just because we rarely watch it anymore and I would rather use the money for gas, brakes, and tires. Also, the kids should be outside playing with asbestos brake dust, sniffing gas in bags, and starting large tire fires...
I really like your comment. Right on! Thanks for the good laugh.

I think at 7 PM Eastern Time, Fox stops broadcasting the race and imsa.tv Web site and app start broadcasting...or perhaps it's IMSA and Fox. Either way, it's working.

How? It tells me the feed is not available in my region.

I've been able to watch the incar intermittently because it keeps crashing but the main broadcast no.

OK so all day it's been telling me I couldn't watch. I could only watch the incar and listen to imsa radio. I was watching on TV but knowing it was going off at 7 I was trying to find a way around the geoblock.

Now it's working.

They screwed up because it's not supposed to be working
