The pre-race press conference and qualifying sessions for next weekend’s Monster Energy Cup will stream live online, Feld Motor Sports announced today.

Contested at Las Vegas’ Sam Boyd Stadium, the content will be streamed live for free at www.monsterenergycup.com/supercrosslive and www.facebook.com/vegasmecup.

The pre-race press conference, featuring the defending champion Justin Barcia, Ryan Villopoto, and Ryan Dungey, will stream live at 8:00pm on Thursday, 17 October ET (11:00am on Friday, 18 October AEST).

Afternoon qualifying sessions on race day will also be streamed live from 4:00-7:30pm on Saturday, 19 October ET (7:00-10:30am on Sunday, 20 October AEST).

“We’re excited to provide pre-race live streaming video coverage to our fans for the second year in a row,” said Linda Ardehali, director of new media, Feld Motor Sports.

“The live stream is the perfect alternative for fans that can’t make it to Las Vegas or just want to tune in from the comfort of their own computer or mobile device on-the-go.”

The Supercross LIVE team of Jim Holley and Kevin Barnett will provide commentary during Saturday’s qualifying sessions.

Fans can continue to access special Supercross LIVE video content throughout the weekend including track walk interviews with the riders, behind the scenes and podium interviews at the end of the evening. They will be made available on the website and social media.

Race action is scheduled to be aired live on ESPN Australia on Sunday, 20 October at 1:00pm AEST.
