The link goes to NBC Sports Gold International which ultimately takes you to the Peacock site which then says it's not available in Canada.

I don't want to fuck around with VPN's and getting friends in the US to give me their credit card numbers so I can perform some shitty workaround.

Somebody get Davey Coombs on this before I have a meltdown.

Same shit here. I'm worried about spending money and then getting shafted.

Why the hell can't they have something like the SX Pass?

When you click buy you get the following screen:

No VPN required.

Hey Boom,

NBC Sports Gold is apparently available in 51 countries. South Africa is listed in there.

Thanks Mav but I'm worried that it directs us to Peacock tv like JG2 said in his post.

I'm in Canada and just bought it.

The races now have a ✔ next to them.

Edit: Cost is $68.33 Canadian.

It really shouldn't. And if it doesn't work, you just have to call your credit card company and dispute the charge.

I just checked the website and the app on my phone and the races are unlocked on both devices, so it looks like I should be able to watch without any issues.

I'll let you know in just over 2 hours when the broadcast starts for Qualifying.

Have you tried to click on the link for the race today ? Does it take you to peacock?
I clicked on the icon under 1 PM EDT and nothing happens because theres nothing being broadcasted.

I'll let you know if it works in a couple hours. If it does, you'll have plenty of time to buy it before the races start.

Keep arriving at this page. When I click Learn more it just takes me to the top of the same page. I also dont see South Africa on the list.

Austria, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and the US.

No South Africa.

I believe motoworldtv.com works, but is an illegal operation.

It also took me back to the top of the page, but if you scroll down you should see Buy Now in a green icon.

Select USD and click Buy Now.

It'll take you to the purchase page.

You can select South Africa from the drop down menu.

Are you still on last year's pass?

I was, but when I logged in this morning the races were locked. Bought the pass and they all have checkmarks now

No VPN.

Going to find out in 40-45 minutes.

PROBLEM SOLVED!

The issue that I and a couple friends here in Canada were having was due to having a previous subscription for NBC Sports Gold. Every time I tried to purchase the new NBC Gold MX Pass it kept telling me I had an account and when I tried to purchase the new MX Pass it wouldn't work.

Instead of using the e-mail address that I used to buy the MX pass last year I used my iCloud email address (but any active email would have worked, I think) and created a new account. Bought the pass and it looks like it will work.

No VPN required.
