I understand that Fox Sports would jump back and forth between FS1 and FS2 but at least the races were live. I could watch for free on the Fox Sports app. I live in the Eastern Time zone. NBC isn't broadcasting the race until 11pm. This is bunk. I'm not a fan of NBC. In order to watch the race from start to finish I'm going to have to stay up until 3am. I'm not a fan of the Triple Crown circus anyway. Now I either stay off of social media or risk finding out the results. It's a shame. I don't see how this is helping the sport grow. I'm not paying $50 for a streaming app. I guess I'm too cheap. I pay for my satellite and it has NBC, all be damned if I pay for it twice. I'd rather watch an abbreviated version of the race on ESPN2 the next day than to watch it on NBC.
Regular broadcast 1 hour late? Boo hoo. Fox would have just joined in progress and you'd have to live with highlights of the first main.

And i dont have the Gold package
Not because i dont want it or because i dont think its worth
It, just couldn't afford it this year, so i am feeling like its a step backward also
I used to watch every race a few hours later on youtube when I was in the military too.
You spend $100 on a decent dinner and a couple glasses of wine with your wife/girlfriends without thinking twice. $90 for 29 weeks of racing is really a bargain.
I also enjoy the NBC broadcasts more. Better camera work and less Monster-ish. Seems more professional IMO.
I was glad I had paid for the pass when the A1 night show showed 100% chance of rain. I watched practice, went home and enjoyed it from my couch while dry and with food/drinks of my choice.

Oh wait. That might be your answer. Work more.
But spends $100 plus per month on hundreds of channels of garbage.
Thank you NBC Gold!!!!!
