IMSA How on Earth do I watch an IMSA race?

[Adam43]

How do you do it? It comes up every race - let's help other 10-10thers out.

I'll go:

IMSA TV / Radio Le Mans

• Location: Global, but only markets that don't have exclusive TV (e.g. not USA). Good examples are Italy and France.
• Live
• Quality is good.
• No adverts
• Commentators: John Hindhaugh, Jeremy Shaw and Shea Adams.
• oh and whoever they have on for a massive interview when something important is happening
• links:
  https://www.imsa.com/tvlive/ - also shows the support races
  mirrored on http://www.radiolemans.co/ (possibly this link: http://imsaradio.com/index.php/live-video/)
• Replay put up on youtube - normally a few says later

NBC/Peacock

• Live: Peacock shows the entire race, NBC often only partially depending what else is being shown (not too sure how much and on what channels they show0
• Replay: Peacock show it. Posted relatively quickly. Not sure how quick, but last night's Long Beach race was ready the following morning - I guess it was quicker than this - they normally take an hour or two with their rugby coverage.
• Commentary: Yes, although expect special features on Jimmie Johnson skiing ten minutes into the race when things are happening.
• Commercials: Very much yes.
• Overall it will make you throw your model Porsche 917 into the TV. Try everything you can to not watch it this way.

IMSA youtube channel

• Really only for replays - but really good.

Anything to add or correct?

If you'd like the same for WEC races see the very informative thread here.
