Default Daytona tv /streaming

Anybody know where one can find Daytona 24hr coverage in Canada. I've got Shaw cable so no Fox Sports channels, none of the TSN channels are showing anything and the IMSA app is only listing the Fox Sports times.
Thanks,
Jim

IMSA will normally do online broadcast when the Fox stream is not available. We've been lucky in Canada a few times where we get the whole race via IMSA TV. Might have to go to a questionable legality source like Kodi.

It will be live streamed via IMSA TV. The only issue being the US market deems Canada as 'domestic' because *one* Canadian network carries Fox sports so Canadian IP's are locked out. You can get around this by using your own VPN or there are online VPN's (see below) that can redirect your IP elsewhere so that you can watch the IMSA 'International' coverage. I'm not sure yet but YouTube's IMSA TV channel may also carry it live but might also be subjected to IP block's. Radio Le mans will carry the audio broadcast on the web and iTunes for free. FYI: Jeff Gordon is driving a Cadillac DPi prototype this year for Wayne Taylor racing.

This topic makes me angry... I just want to watch a few fricken car races a year and I feel like I have to pay protection money to some thugs called "Roger and Bell" just to have the privilege... Sigh... I think I am just going to attend the Rolex 24 in person next year... less hassle, more booze.

I can't find any coverage on Bell.

Gotta "love" Velocity, no races but plenty of auto restoration reality shows.

Bell doesn't have Fox Sports 1, I'm thinking of switching back to Rogers for that reason.
The only auto racing on Bell Fibe is what you can find on TSN, and it's not much.

Don't panic yet - it remains to be seen IF they IP block the stream on IMSA TV BUT if they do - use the online VPN I listed above.

FYI: Watched the international feed today - no IP blocks.

Feed located here: http://imsatv.imsa.com/

I believe there is a pre-race starting at 2:00PM - Race start 2:30PM Sat.

Commentary is by Radio Le Mans crew on the International feed - NOT Fox!!

DPi class qualifying = Caddie 1st, 2nd and 3rd P2 (Jani)

Anyone use this to get an international feed? I'm guessing the geoblock will be on during the race.
