Just been in touch with Eurosport and they say that, yes, they are covering LM 2020 on Eurosport 1. They do a monthly one off pass for £4.99.

I believe Eurosport Player gets you advert free coverage, is anyone able to confirm?

The Practice, Qualifying and Hyperpole coverage is all on Eurosport 2 if that makes a difference to what you need to purchase.

Not sure about Le Mans, but they have continuous ad-free (or promotion free as Carlton Kirby calls it) coverage on the Tour De France at the moment via the Player (been watching it on my Fire TV Stick through the TV)

Even more essential than being ad free is being Carlton Kirkby free (although I believe he's staying with Le Tour not doing Le Mans), and the ultimate nightmare, being free of Robbie Nock, wherever the pictures come from the audio has to be Radio Le Mans

There is an offer for the Eurosport Player on Prime that you get a 7 day free trial. So I’ll just register Tuesday before departing, then make sure I cancel when come back Monday. Happy days.

tbh the eurosport coverage was rubbish last year. too many breaks and too many interviews/ analysis.

the WEC app for £8.99 is far better, you get graham goodwin as the commentator, no ad breaks and can run live timing and video side by side.

obviously also RLM for audio if you want to run them side by side.

Does the WEC app let you chromecast?

Last year there was more then one eurosport feed. One with adverts, one withiut (but I think the latter didnt have commentary). We watched the latter, listening to radio le mans

Although it might need to be Eurosport for the free practice sessions other than the first one

If accessing via computer, the schedule doesn't agree with some browsers. Try Firefox, it worked for me

I'll echo this. I've got it playing on the tv via fire stick so just like having sky. TV for visuals, laptop for timings and radio LM.

Still no idea where the uninterrupted and no commentary option is though laugh

Anyone worked how you get to the different feeds on Eurosport player?

Apparently you can get ad free and different viewing options?

I had thought that a free trial of Eurosport Player wouldn't be an option if you have previously had a trial or a subscription, but it seems it is. So that's a bonus.

Usually I watch the Eurosport coverage via my Sky package which means putting up with the adverts.

I'm having trouble finding the actual live feed though, as opposed to recorded content.

Edit: Ok, I found it under "Live" but it has adverts. I may as well watch via my Sky box instead if I'm getting the adverts feed. Any ideas?

From my post in the watching from home thread...


Side note, there's a Reddit thread titled "24 Hours of Lemans streams", posted by a user called "jj62mtp". May be useful to know...


I'm watching the first link (Webstream - world feed) at the mo. It's the WEC stream, Martin Haven and Allan McNish commentating, quality good so far smile
