And you should be able to switch between Quest and ITV4 during the adverts hopefully

For some reason there is no monthly subscription for Eurosport Player anymore. Now I can pay the same for one day access, what is this nonsense?

Yeah, in my country (Netherlands) they removed that option. So I turned on the ol' VPN and just bought a month package from 'Sweden'. Still valid for the Dutch language website too.
Kind of an annoying move though to just get rid of the monthly subscription offer for no apparent reason. |

Does anyone know who the broadcast team for the official WEC steam is? I can't find anything saying who is on it.
http://www.fiawec.com/en/news/new-we...-for-2017/4830 This has the WEC team, but I can't find Le Mans. Edit: Can't find the roster for Eurosport or RLM either, or what ITV and Quest will be using. I wish we could just get RLM on the official stream and be done with it. Last edited by Akrapovic; 13 Jun 2017 at 21:22. |

EDIT: didn't read the link Eurosport team: The English language service, both for the UK and international, will this year be fronted by Mark Cole, Martin Haven, Carlton Kirby and David Addison, supplemented by driver experts Sam Hancock, Damien Faulkner and Liz Halliday, with Chris Parsons on the night watch, and guests to the on-site commentary cabins. David Addison (does Blancpain) is great. And looks like no clashing cycling event = Kirby is back. http://sportscar365.com/lemans/wec/e...-from-le-mans/ Last edited by deggis; 13 Jun 2017 at 21:52. |

Mcnish - cover all eight rounds of the WEC – the 24 Hours of Le Mans broadcast package being a separate entity. Moody - and for this season will cover the 6 Hours of Silverstone, the 6 Hours of Nürburgring and the 6 Hours of Bahrain. Haven - will cover the WEC 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, 6 Hours of Mexico, 6 Hours of COTA, 6 Hours of Fuji and 6 Hours of Shanghai. It keeps saying Le Mans is a different package, but doesn't say who will be doing it. If it ends up as being Moody then I'll be moving to Eurosport, as he's absolutely useless. They might've said the change was for continuity, but it's more fractured than ever. Can we just get RLM please. Just pay RLM as much money as they want, and put the RLM audio into the stream. |

Just seen your Eurosport edit. Cheers for that. Looks good for Eurosport so that'll most likely be the route I go. £6 for coverage is very reasonable.

Bleugh, Kryptonite Kirby. I'd sooner they put a fog horn in front of the microphone.
Addison does very well. But is Jeremy Shaw somewhere on someone's rota? |

Oops, didn't read the link... and I think I never read it back when this was announced. It isn't about continuity then for sure.
I'd put bets on all the names that have appeared as LM replacements in the past years. From last year I only remember that one guy who does WRC and even his name I don't remember. |

I assume Shaw will be on the RLM radio coverage. It is a shame all the best are on RLM. I hate muting the TV to sync radio. It never syncs correctly and loses ambient sounds.
Eurosport for me it looks like. Annoyingly they still haven't fixed the Eurosport Player app for the Xbox 18 months later. |

I've bought the LM-package for £5.99. Well worth it to have RLM coverage and ambient sounds IMO. |

I can do that which is a good idea Yeah. Are RLM doing a video stream with a timer? They did that for a race last year and it helped sync up. Without it, it's just a guessing game.

I hate when they're ahead and they spoil a pass before you see it on 'live' TV! Grrr Can you purchase this Eurosport thingy in the U.S.?

Honestly no idea if you can. It only comes up with UK options here.
http://eurosportplayer.com/ See what happens when you load that in the US. They usually offer a monthly pass for about £7. They're now offering a Le Mans only pass for £6. Sounds like it has different camera options (normal, onboard, no commentary). Does have adverts and commercials, but less than what you're used to in the US. If it works I highly recommend this one. |

Just a quick heads up that Amazon prime now carries the Eurosport player, and they (in the UK at least) are offering a free 7 day trial. You can also take out the Prime 30 day trial alongside it - Free coverage of Eurosport, providing you cancel the membership within 7 days.

For anyone 'down under' in Australia, there is a similar two week free trial with Foxtel Now which will give you the Eurosport coverage :

I don't see a listing for it, anyone know where to watch the practice sessions? Also, if I download the WEC app and purchase the race pack for IPad, can I open it up on PC? Or are they exclusive to platform? |

However...the site is terrible, and I'm never completely confident it'll work, so I can't be 100% sure. But in my experience, I bought on a PC and it works on PC and iPhone. |

Lol!!! I thought in the past, the problem was that RLM don't want their stream behind a paywall. Although I can't figure why it's so hard to get RLM on a television broadcast, they are gold. |

I have live video on my WEC android app, no announcers - but good car/background sounds. Well, nevermind, here come the announcers now.
I have NOTHING on the WEC website. And I have a paid LeMans pack. |
