There may be some free ones out there, but they could come bundled with some sketchy malware, so I'd be cautious with that. Maybe someone else knows of a good one?
Of course, this assumes you're watching on a computer, or connecting a computer to your TV. Nord may have an app
for GoogleTV/AppleTV as well, if that's what you're using, but I don't know that for sure.

Fans at the track saw the incident happen and were able to grab photos of the wrecked vehicle after the fact. It is unclear how the incident happened, but we do know one thing, they need a backup safety car after this.

The Rolex 24 at Daytona is set to begin at 1:40 PM EST. Folks at home can watch on Peacock for coverage of the entire 24-hour race.

Grandstands are mostly full, probably 2/3. It's nice to see people showing up to this race.
