Full WEC no longer on sky?

[Daston]

So now motors tv has gone is there no way of watching the whole wec races without subscribing to eurosport or bt sports? Was looking forward to tomorrows race but it looks like we only get the last 2 hours in the UK.

I am sure you could easily find a dodgy stream somewhere to watch the Toyota race surely

Subscribe directly via the WEC website. Full HD coverage with multiple cameras and no adverts.

Or Eurosport Player will stream the entire race.

Eurosport is part of the basic family package on Sky anyway there isn't a separate subscription.

There is for the online Eurosport Player service and that tends to have far more content available than the 2 TV channels.

Eurosport is only £40 a year , My DD is £2.99 a month . so a pint of beer in real PH terms

Are they not shown live on here? - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU8C8RqGhqH4nhk4m...

This says it was "Streamed live on Aug 18, 2018" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZa_8QY2C_g

The ELMS is a different series.(I know it's sooo bloody confusing)

From the ELMS site

WEC – A step into a Global Competition

The European Le Mans Series is a natural training ground for drivers wanting to tackle the FIA World Endurance Championship. Drivers competing in LMP2 and LMGTE are racing the same machinery that competes on the world stage and perhaps the next world champion will be found on the grid of the ELMS.

Problem with EuroSport is the endless, repetitive adverts and they can never keep to their advertised schedules. Loads of times I've turned on to watch racing only to find downhill skiing or tennis on instead and then they switch to the racing two laps from the end.

That's why I use the FIA streams. I really resent paying for a service and then getting bombarded with adverts on it as well. With the amount of quality racing coverage that is available on low cost, high quality streams and via YouTube for free traditional TV coverage will die off.

WEC spp is best solution. You can even watch it trackside or in your garden or stream to your t.v.

What a retrograde step.
I hate watching streams! They are usually very frustrating and nowhere near as good as normal HDTV.

Illegal ones maybe. The official FIA one that I use is full HD with multiple angles, no adverts and, when I cast it to my TV, I can't tell I'm not watching a traditional broadcast.

At the end of the day iPlayer, NetFlix, Amazon Prime etc etc are all streams.

What he said really.

In 2017 we weren't able to make it to the race but watched it on the app and were reporting back to friends trackside the details.

In 2018 we watched it trackside when we wanted and also in our b&b 15 mins walk from the main gate.

Buy the bundle and you get to watch all WEC races.
