IMSA geoblocks their stream in order to force you to watch Fox.

Why? It's the same thing just with different announcers. I have a subscription for Fox but there's no reason to force one over the other.

$$$

Jokes aside, I'm sure it's something to do with Fox having some sort of broadcasting rights for IMSA, and I'm sure they want to makeas much of a profit off of viewership as they can.

What's weird is I can't get a working link to someone outside of the US watching through the IMSA site. Then I can just use the URL link in my browser and watch on PS4 or my phone when I go out to dinner later.

50 Merc has suspension damage.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Hurry down to the Merc garage the 50 is coming to you soon.

 

[catamount39]

Well...clearly the #33 is the only Merc' to actually care about this season. #75 is a baackmarker and with this the #50 shows it's snake bit.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

50 had a broken hub assembly. Attempting to replace it in the pits.

 

[Mike458]

50's got hweel damij.

 

[RACECAR]

So they are exempt from a penalty for the incident that they caused?

Having the starter motor fail and going two laps down right after said contact (followed by losing a tire on the restart) is self-penalizing in itself, no need for excessive force. As far as I can tell, both cars got penalized: one penalized itself via said accident and the other got slapped with one.

 

[johnnyman123]

Well it worked, as I am now watching FS1 for coverage.

 

[Mike458]

Missed it, dammit. Phone's nearly out of battery, will recharge and be back out there soon!

You didnt miss anything because they never left pit lane.

[IforceV8]

 

[Mike458]

Some photo archives (phone is at 25% atm...)

 

[AnthonyD1993]

One of the Lexus cars went to the garage.

 

[Mike458]

Bumps are probably taking their toll on the LF suspension of the GTD cars...

 

[catamount39]

These Cadillac's have terrible starters...that or it isn't big enough for the V8.

@Organ-Donor , photographer change!

Lol.ya I wish, not only do I have zero memory on my phone but my battery drains like 1% per minute. I have a powerbank and still have to recharge that

 

[AnthonyD1993]

24 in the tire barrier.

 

[catamount39]

#24 playing hide and seek apparently...

Why have a working starter when the rules dont apply to your team?
