The American Le Mans Series opened today. The big opener known as the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring. Sports car racing, Prototypes, sunshine.

Unlike Formula 1 which had their practice sessions pushed back to race day because of very heavy rain, Sebring is boasting sun and mid-70’s on the thermometer.

Not that at we can watch. At home SPEED channel is available in lovely 16×9 HD. However, on the road and staying a bit out of the way, SPEED is not available on the TV we have. ESPN3 – NADA. The alternative is to go online but the ALMS website feed is shown as unavailable in the viewing area.

This may also present an issue for the F1 Australian Grand Prix but early eastern broadcast times and the intention of alcohol for the evening may supersede any difficulties…

As far as ALMS goes for viewing Sebring without SPEED or ESPN3, the fine folks at Flying Lizard Motorsports (Porsche racing in the GT class), offered up an alternative link on their facebook feed.
