It'll be on Eurosport or you can buy the streaming package through fiawec.tv.

Does the fiawec.tv package have the same English commentary as Eurosport, or is it different?

Also I read that if you watch Eurosport through Discovery+ you don't get adverts, is that also correct? EDIT: I see below r/Dan27 answered about the adverts on Discovery+!

New signups get a free 7 day trial of Discovery Plus, time it right and don’t forget to cancel!

The best option is via Discovery Plus, where all televised sessions will be streamed uninterrupted.

Several teams normally stream live in car footage, add radio le mans in the background and its close, but still not as good as Eurosport.

Firefox can display several Youtube channels windowless: How to fullscreen videos to the window, and not your monitor its a good effect with four streams or three plus live timing.

Discovery plus app and a choice of official WEC commentary or choose Ambient Noises and have the Radio Le Mans commentary playing over it which a lot of people do

So just to be clear, there won‘t be a free stream on youtube?

No. It'll be uploaded to YouTube some time after the race. Last year it went up about 2 weeks after.

Just a warning that the Discovery+ app is a bit of a mess on some platforms - I've had issues with the app on my LG TV, but it works OK via Google TV, so just make sure you test it out beforehand.

Do you not have Eurosport? It will be on there.
