The coverage will also include live graphics with timing, maps and profiles, and English commentary from Barrie Shepley, the long-time voice of the ITU.
If you miss a race live, a full race replay will be available on the website shortly after it finishes.

Adding to the race-day coverage, there will a magazine show, which will have in-depth race highlights. The video isn’t just made for computer screens; plug your computer into a TV and watch the full screen version of the broadcast in its full glory.

Each individual race or magazine show stream can be watched for just €1.99 or buy the half season pass for €12.99 and watch all the action from this season and the upcoming Yokohama races.
