You can watch it for free about 2 hours after the race has finished it gets uploaded to piratebay. No ads, no cost.

If you are not prepared to wait then pay to watch it, personally I pay to watch them live but I know not everyone has good internet or whatever, so this is your best bet.

You get my point... people are complaining about “having to pay” to watch SX this year compared to last year, which is nonsensical. It was never free to watch.

If you already have a cable subscription, you can watch it for “free” just like last gear and the years before. The Gold Pass is just another alternative to watch. Not mandatory.

No piratebay in Australia and many countries, it's outlawed.

Baypirateproxy.org is the same and works in Aus
Otherwise google pirate bay proxies as the sites often change.

I agree. It’s so crazy to me how people act about the package we have for supercross. Or anything on here for that matter.

He's referring to the American audience. For years it's been on Fox Sports 1 (sometimes FS2), and now it's gonna be on NBC Sports Network. If you already have NBCSN via cable/satellite, it's "free," same as ever. I mean, you don't pay a special fee for that particular channel.

Yeah all the people who are not hardcore fans and on vital are going to do this. I think dv said a few years ago we really have it good with a decent tv package. Now i can see he was right.

70 bucks for 17 rounds is more than reasonable in my opinion. What's everyone bitching about?

The main stream fan will pay for the package but the casual fan will not. In no way will this set up help grow viewership beyond the main stream audience. Big step backwards for sure. Reality is that Supercross is a very niche sport and not going to grow .

Just pay for the shit and support your sport fucking retards. A lot of people bitch about how MX industry is hurting but they don’t want to pitch in. You’ll go buy a $800 recluse to pull your fat ass around the track without clutching but you won’t buy access to a program that lets you watch the greatest Motorsport known to mankind on demand.... I could go on. Some people... sheesh.

I would gladly pay for it to watch it on TV. Unfortunately it's not available in my area.

Dont you get it? People bitch to bitch. They could have 4k races for free streamed to their 90” tv live every week on big fox with their favorite announcers and find some mundane thing to complain about.

It's way better than Wide World of Sports showing cut down motos of the Carlbad GP 6 months after the race and not having any way to record it back then.
For $90 you can get the Nationals too. That's about the price of 1 decent SX ticket before you pay for parking and food/beer. The beer and food is cheaper at home and the bathroom is 5 step away with no lines.

Can you watch it on more than one tv at a time in the same house ? It looks like one log in at a time so not likely. kinda sucks cause usually have lots of people over and watch in the garage plus have it on in the family room.

Yes you should be able to watch it on multiple devices at same time. I did that for all the nationals last year.
