SuperGT broadcast coverage

[Richard Dastardly]

As I suspected ( and hoped wasn't true ) NISMO TV is not covering SuperGT this year. It's been awkward to find out exactly what is going on, but from twitter comments it seems like a deal for English commentary live broadcast is trying to be made, but we're not going to get it for the first event

Has anyone gathered any more definitive info?

The official SuperGT youtube channel will be uploading three week-delayed race replays, in both English and Japanese. Best we've got until (hopefully) Let's Go Racing can make a deal.

Further news, the external broadcast rights were given to a Malaysian company so there is *some* sort of plan - now we just have to hope sensible deals can be done with them. That does put yet another layer into everything...

Fortunately there wasn't much of a race to miss this weekend.

Double post, where did that delete option go...

Will be streamed on motorsport.tv - the rest this season will be free. No news on next season & the future. Will miss Sam & Rob's unique commentary

Well, Fuji stream is live now:

Good points - 1080p, good framerate, no Youtube fuzziness.
Bad points - broadcast delay is something like 7 minutes; I cannot stand the commentary team, so much so that I've muted the audio. Sorry ms tv, no.
