LiveSimRacing TV. It’s much better than I thought it would be for a live broadcast for iRacing races. The commentators are very good, and the action is pretty much on par with watching it on TV.

Sweet. Just turned it on. Had to explain it to my wife.

I wonder if the actually drive during the entire caution?? I'd guess so.

It’s iRacing.com yes they do. There has been a surge in the sim racing broadcasting recently. I couldn’t believe it myself. Racespot got a deal with Indycar for a league and they also have a deal to broadcast a virtual BTCC championship on MotorsTV. I still can’t comprehend it.

What the actual fuck? I am simultaneously impressed and bewildered.

Nice! I’m glad to see more and more of this sort of stuff. There’s a whole community dedicated to producing these live broadcasts and I’ve had the opportunity to run in a few races with live coverage. It’s really really cool to be able to go back and watch your race as it unfolded live with commentary.

It is fun to do, usually mine goes “At 13:02, you see me flying through the air on fire.”

The announcers are really good. They have a passion for it, and you can easily hear it in their voices.
