Just signed up to Peacock to watch nationals and can't seem to find any history. Will it not allow you to search motocross until the nationals start on Saturday the 29th ?

No there is no past broadcast of any MX on peacock. You can watch this years SX only.

Hopefully by next weekend they will have it listed under live and they make it pretty frustrating and hard to follow our sport on these apps as I can tell ya if you buy the mxgp package it’s nite and day difference and soo much more professional!! Hopefully the coverage will be better this season and grant and weigant can keep the camera guys straight!

Had a buddy who's a casual fan ask when the motos would be shown because all the sites still say TBA and racing starts this Saturday. What a shit show. So I just told him plan on 1pm Pacific time since they're at Pala and that's common moto 1 start time. It's almost like they just don't give a shit anymore.

What's hard to follow? Worked jus fine for sx. Are we complaining before mx has even started?

I think SX also just showed up on peacock 2-3 days before the first round started.
I mean apart from the late announcing (which is indeed really stupid) and the missing rewind button (at least for PC/browser) the coverage was pretty nice on peacock so far, at least as a VPN user I can say that the quality is way better on peacock than on NBC Gold.

That’s what I am wondering. How old are these dudes who can’t figure out a simple app and can’t google the schedule?

Yeah, I don't know why they wouldn't have the start times on that page. Makes no sense. They also need to put the timezone anytime they list a time.

Can you guys advise on how I can watch from the UK? I always used NBC sports gold but not sure how to watch with the move to Peacock (the peacock site says it is unavailable in my region)

I'm pretty sure the only way to get it to work is using a VPN and setting it to USA.

Okay - I was hoping to avoid the fuss of using a VPN but if that’s my only option then so be it! If anybody else happens to see this and is aware of another way let me know. Seems a bit odd that they wouldn’t allow UK users the option to watch the racing since I imagine there’s a big market here for subscriptions.

Thanks Mav - if I go to my account on NBC sport gold it shows this though? Maybe I’ll wait to see if it auto renews and then I’ll know I’m good to go ??

I'm not sure why that's there. I mean, I know Supercross and Motocross moved to the Peacock platform, but it looks like they're still offering the MX pass for international users via NBC Sports Gold?

The last line on the left says that it will not auto-renew, so I don't think I would wait to see if it does.

Maybe a technical problem from NBC/NBC Sports?

Send them an email or call to see what's up. Hopefully just some technical problem and not some major bullshit.

I'm in Canada and that's the only way I'll be able to watch as well, so hoping it's fixed by Saturday. Haven't bought it yet.

I had the same problem, but when I opened the app on my phone it said I had access and the races showed up.

Under "My Account" go to history and look at when you bought your 2020 pass. They run 365 days.

Turns out I bought my pass on June 1st, so I still have access to the pass for a few more days and will have to buy it again next week.

It was confusing because it said I had access to it (which turns out I do) but the 2021 races were not showing up anywhere on the website.

You might still have access to it for a week, a month, ... so check that.

Also, thearc posted the following link in another thread and the races showed up.

https://www.nbcsports.com/gold/int/pro-motocross/schedule

Hope you get it sorted out.

@ Bjorn: Did it allready work out for you?

The NBC Gold is very confusing (I am from the Netherlands), and I saw the same message "Moved to Peacock".

But with the message of @Maverick I found out, only in the mobile App the Pro Motocross (past seasons) and events this coming weekend are shown.

But why can't we watch the LIVE Streams on the NBC Gold website?

I think NBC Sports Gold have messed up on their end. Probably something to do with how their servers or whatever are picking up IP addresses. They should not show people outside of the US the message about Peacock. I even have an email from NBC sports gold saying they are showing the nationals for countries outside of the US. I got a response from them but it didn’t explain much, I sent them the same screenshot as above and this was the response…..

"Can only access content on Mobile or Web devices (international content is not available on connected devices)"

What exactly does that mean?

I have the same question, what does it mean?

Available on mobile devices (= mobile pone), check!

Available on Web Devices?? What kind of devices?

Not available on "connected devices"? What kind of devices?
