Discovery + w Eurosport in the US to watch CX?

Hello OBRA,

Has Discovery + allowed USA customers to subscribe so we can watch Eurosport cyclocross?

Thanks,

Paul

It seems to still be in the promotional period. If you have a base Max subscription, you can watch cycling content under the B-R sports tab. I just finished watching most of the Lake Placid WC XCC and XCO races. The B-R sports section isn't well organized, so you may have to use the search option or dig through the calendar.

I haven't heard of when they plan to require the B-R sports add on fee. The first cross race on their calendar is the Exact cross in Beringen on Oct 12th.

Paul- I believe they are still blocking this. Best bet, if its a possibility to you, is to have a european friend sign up for you (with their CC) and using a VPN.

UPADTE. On MAX, more events are starting to appear on the cyclocrcross calendar. This same thing happened last year after the GCN shutdown, the content started to show up on MAX, just not all at once on the calendar. During this years WC XCO season, the calendar didn't show events more than 3-4 weeks ahead. But all races were available.

So far they have listed events for the Exact cross series (Beringen 10/12, Essen 10/26), Superprestige (Ruddervoorde 10/20, Overijse 10/27), and X2O (Oudenaarde 11/1). I bet those series will all be available on MAX throughout the season.
