Sorry if this has already been discussed, but where will I be able to watch the nationals this year? Is it Allisports again? And only 1st motos?

Thanks

Yeah normally use that, but always in a rush to find the right working link 10 minutes before the start haha, thought i'd get it out of the way early.

What happened to the Alli sports streaming we had a couple of seasons ago?
Why not do something like that again and include both motos?

All four motos stream on www.promotocross.com (which used to be the Alli Sports site) -- the first motos for anyone, the second motos with an authenticated cable provider of the NBC Sports Network Extra app. Press release going out later today on how to do it all.

Thanks DC!! Is there anyway to get an authenticated cable provider of the NBC Sports Network Extra app outside the US? Most of us are more than willing to pay for watching the nationals live in good quality.

Davey, Cox cable subscriber here. We have NBCSP, but we are not on the list of "Approved" providers. Anything you can do about that? Thanks! Smile
P.S. This was a problem all of last year.
PP.SS. I know this is an international thread, but I'm desperate. LOL

I have a meeting with all of the TV people today and I will find out/beg for help!

Also, there will be a pre-show hosted by Georgia that starts about 45 minutes before each race.

Will it be viewable in delay? I mostly miss the first round due to other things so I would like to watch the race on the website 4 hours after it is done. Previous year it was possible, I hope it still is!

I'd be stoked with the first two motos live then the second archived somewhere if we can't get them live but I know there's a problem with our pay tv cause they are live on that

All of the motos will be archived on www.promotocross.com as soon as possible following the races for free viewing.

I think those of us that are international or unplugged from cable but use internet content like myself (hulu plus, netflix, youtube, xbox live, etc) for entertainment would be glad to pay for a live online broadcast. I'm not buying a cable package for the only content I would like to view and that is mx/sx. That's $1440.00 roughly a year. Nope.

Would be more than happy to pay for second moto stream.

I do think that having the races online later achieved is awesome, thanks for that DC.

I can watch first motos online, which is great. But couldn't you stream the 2nd motos too or something for international viewers outside of the US that won't encroach on your networks viewing figures that don't have said cable packages?

Great news, Davey !
That's a real comfort for the international viewers to be able to watch the motos at their convenience with, often, such a big time difference.
Fans have that service for the GP's (at a cost, but excellent service), it's great to have it for the Nationals as well (and if it's even free, more power to you) !
I just watched the Weigandt-Matthes duo videos previewing the series.
Man, are we as plainly aware of how good it is to be a(n internet) fan nowadays and how much better, literally, than it's ever been before !
We know everything about... the riders/the bikes/the teams/the tracks/the potential upsets/the conspiracy theories/the injuries/the silly season stuff/the you name it...
All from the comfort of our home.
Just like that !
It's great but one needs to keep in mind that, for your own pleasure, "nothing will ever beat going to the races" !

What happened last year? I seem to remember them saying first motos would be live for everyone and then we ended up getting shafted or something.

I personally watch live and hope for a high quality live service, I'm pretty sure DC has taken care of that !
But it is really nice to watch it delayed from the source rather than on those often crappy youtube replays.

Anything you can do to make both motos available live in Aus would be appreciated, all of us down under can't wait to see Metty and Reed go 1-2 this weekend Smile

Or even on delay is fine, just realized, ill be heading to the track or already at the track in Western Australia covering the Aussie Nats this weekend, so some type of delayed coverage to watch Sunday night out time would be sweet Smile

Why is it so hard to do it like GP's do it ?


Let the mx-core fans get the opportunity to pay a cost to see both motos live on a website !?


Then you can show the races live or delayed on TV for the "regular people" ...if the intension is to get more people interested.

As long as there at least is a chance to see both motos live...I wouldn't complain.

This stupid package of showing 1 moto here and another there surely makes even a "regular non mx-fan" upset. Trying to get involved with the sport ! I see no gains in that !

This ^^

There is no chance to watch both motos (legally) live for the fans around the world, or even some fans in the US.
Same procedure as every year...
It's getting annoying to watch the AMA races, just because of that pathetic broadcast-system.

So as the years before, we have to watch a illegal stream (that hopefully pops up come racetime) instead of watching a good and save official stream that we would gladly be paying for.

Aussie fans we are getting two hours of live coverage on Sunday morning from 7 or 7.30 depending on our state, not sure if it is first or second moto's, hopefully second and we can watch first live online

Yep great news for us Aussies, looks like first motos we can watch online at 5am 5.30 am SA then second motos live on the Speed channel on Foxtel.
