Hi, can anyone point me in the direction of a free stream for this or by any chance are Sky or Eurosport showing it live tomorrow/Sunday?

As per link above. Radio Le Mans/ IMSA tv will be showing the full race live, free of charge. RLM are on air at 8pm Saturday evening with the race starting 830pm UK time.

No, probably have to go back best part of a decade to MotorsTV coverage for that

You can Chromecast the RLM feed, seems to work well. The supporting MX5 Cup races are worth a catch up, especially the last two laps of Race 1.

Eurosport often show things like this? The commentary is terrible though.

No, they're not showing IMSA. I can't recall if they ever have, certainly not in the last decade. If you're outside of North America, it's free on IMSA tv.

There’s a feed on YouTube but it just has sound and another with very poor quality live pictures but in Spanish. I gave up

I was looking forward to streaming this on YouTube, but it appears that they've falsely claimed there's a live stream on there and are just playing audio. Their website works but it's a PITA not being able to use YT.

Thanks for the links👍. Can’t seem to watch it on tv though, just get a blank screen when we select live TV, can get it no problem on my iPad and Android phone so it’s an issue with the (Samsung) TV, any ideas?

Have managed to get the live stream via IMSA TV working on my Xbox.

Good race so far, looking forward to seeing how Jimmy J and Chase get on

Possibly the ad-blocker on the browser. Can you change the settings?

Thanks for this - got it working on Edge on the Xbox now! I'm rooting for Kmag on his debut.

If anyone has video problems, this link seems to be the most stable. It also casts really well.

Would be good if they could reduce the caution periods just a bit.. the current one is for no reason at all.

Am too having issues with IMSA tv, I guess they want you to pay or something.

Oh well, racing at the moment is woeful anyway, so just move on to something else, having to use LMP3 to bolster the field is a sure sign this series is struggling

Try imsaradio.com (don't go to the radio page on imsa.com), click on the live video button top left. For some reason the link I gave above works on my laptop but not tablet, must be something in the settings

Had issues with the RLM feed this morning (which is usually good for me), but IMSA tv now casting without an issue.

The safety car driving around without his headlights on is a bit odd

And the race car driving between the safety crews was ridiculous.

Could be a decent race at the front all the way to the finish now.
