Maybe we can all pool our resources together to make a list of places to watch racing online. Someone mentioned that Hulu has the 2008 and 2009 WRC seasons up, and another person posted a site where the current FIA GT series can be seen. What else have you guys found?

I missed the Jordan WRC race this year (forgot to add it to the DVR) and ended up watching it on YouTube from MrAntystenes channel. All of the current season's races are there, which offer more content than the HD Theater broadcast does, though its only in 480p.

I use a program called Identity Cloaker (a legit proxy service, but its not free) to log onto the BBC website, I haven't heard of anywhere with more F1 videos posted. They have all the practice, qualifying, and races from this season and several years back. Plus the pre-race and post-race shows. The video quality is great as well, higher than what Comcast gives me on the Speed Channel.

I would like to find somewhere to watch DTM, JGTC, and WTCC races.

great idea.
I think Mr. Redman223's post should be stickied, too!

Its a grey area for sure. The site itself is legal since they do not host content, but what you do with it may not be. smile

Just throwing it out there, as a rally fan in the US its about all we have.

OK!

What about SPEED channel? LOL I guess they are too busy showing tons and tons of episodes of Wrecked, Pinks, Barret-Jackson auctions, The Racing Chef, and NASCAR - Fast Track to Fame talent show!

iirc, didn't speed drop WRC altogether?
folks were talking about SPEED creating a spinoff channels to allow for more focus on the good stuff...i wonder if this is still an idea?

Yup, SPEED dropped WRC a few years back. Discovery HD Theater has been carrying it, but its hard to find when it airs, and they not even show some rallies (they did not show Rally New Zealand).

The rumor is that RU is only giving out 1 invite per user, which makes them very dear.

More youtube channels:

For AMA road racing: http://www.youtube.com/user/OnTheThrottleTV

WRC official channel: http://www.youtube.com/wrc

Indy Car: http://www.youtube.com/indycarseries


OT, but for bicycle racing http://www.steephill.tv/ has a bunch of live feeds in different languages. The last 4 stages of the Tour de France begin tomorrow. Epic finish on the Tourmalet tomorrow. Funny, when they were in the Alps last week the peloton was on some of the stages from RBR, like Joux Plane.
