No more online streaming of IMSA races?
 
At least not without a cable subscription with a premium channel tier with the Fox Sports channels.

F'n shame...

Sheesh! Let's make it harder, eh IMSA?

Vandit 03-08-2016 08:51 PM

This is going to be the case for all IMSA feature races from here on out (Sebring 12hr, Petit Le Mans, COTA, etc., any time the P, PC, GTLM, and GTD cars are racing).

They say that they will continue to make the Continental Tire and GT3 Cup races available on their site.

That stinks, the streams were great. Talk about shooting them selves in the foot.

Bummer. Gotta keep the FOX people happy. If people go to an outside app to stream... then there are less eyeballs in front of FOX advertisers.

Already has.

ALMS did the same sh!t geoblocking the feed for Americans. Unreal. I used to have a plug-in thingy on Safaris that made it look like I was a Brit and that worked but I can't find that program anymore.

Same Atherton, different day

They were similar for televised races last year. You had to have FS1 and 2. My cable company only offers FS1. I stopped getting some IMSA races, all AU V8 Supercars, no BTC. Really sucks.

You can always use a proxy server. Not a big deal. Search for ones in Briton.

Asshattery at its finest.

There must have too much viewing, too much interest. Time to draw the curtains and shut it down.

:rolleyes:

As an irrelevant aside (Canadians and Quebecers HATE car racing), if you subscribe to Bell satellite TV, the national standard, you can't watch ****.

Yet more rubbish, I give up.

Hard to envision a way of being more contemptuous to faithful fans, but I'm sure FranceAm will find a way.
