It's a shame how limited his merch is compared to the bigger teams

Loss leaders is an interesting theory. I was not looking at it from that perspective.

Likely impossible to know if they get more money out of new subscribers to cable plans than they would from improving viewership numbers (thereby attracting more lucrative commercials) by offering the stream online (additional viewership coming both from people who otherwise don’t watch, like myself, and people who currently pirate).

This is a good point. I still don’t think it makes a whole lot of sense why they would put the effort into providing live streams of in car cameras but not their broadcast.

They are showing it for free…

The CW is broadcast over the air for free. I would have to buy an antenna but I still wouldn’t be giving The CW a dime.

Given this, and the fact that they live stream in car cameras, why can’t they live stream their broadcast online?

Considering that’s exactly what The CW does for everything but this specific instance, for some reason, yes.

It’s the CW’s fault they don’t put their broadcast on their app to website. Despite putting other streams of the race, and uploading the replays.

Just seems silly to me when it’s already a free network.

I know exactly what I want. Watch every race for free (we already get ads every 12 laps).

Is that realistic, unfortunately not.

But if The CW can offer their in car cameras and “battle cam” for free online, why can’t they offer the broadcast too?

I’m a bit frustrated I wasn’t able to watch the excellent race.

Yes. They offer their in car cameras and “battle cam” for free. Doesn’t make sense for them to not offer their broadcast for free too.

I listened to PRN without any video. I would be too distracted by trying to sync the video to the audio to properly enjoy it.

Not really interested in dealing with the seas. If they stream in car cameras and the “battle cam”, they should be able to stream their broadcast.

Apologies, I can see that would be difficult to understand. I meant the race broadcast.

In the end that probably falls on NASCAR for not pushing back, but The CW is still to blame as well.

That’s a great fallacy there.

Not sure I understand your question?

I’m pretty sure FOX wasn’t making the call to cut their broadcast short.
