Gawd, how many watches does Nasr need? Announcer said Peter Gregg also won 3, 50 years ago..
there is a really sad story...brilliant driver, sad ending.

I watched all, except for the 6.5 hour yellow flag. I knew that fog was going nowhere quick, excellent time for a nap.
Nasr is a machine ! WTG Porsche !

I was there. The fog was great for sleeping at the track too.

I enjoyed the story they told about how Nasr interviewed with the captain to get a seat with the team . A secret meeting in a mall parking lot ! Roger saw Nasr in a business suit and said to himself " I like this guy " . Pretty cool and a very wise decision by Roger . Agreed on Nasr being a machine , just cranks out consistent fast laps every stint .

I tried to find a place to watch it for free, but couldn’t.

NBC had the first hour, and then skipped to the last 90 minutes. Lots of talking heads and no race coverage for most of that.

I watched it on Peacock. Flag to flag coverage ! I think I pay $5 per month for it. So, while not free, there is a lot of sports coverage and other content ( movies and such). I got it a few years back specifically to see the full 24 hours of Daytona. One less fast food burger a month covers the cost.

I tried NBC but our xfinity account didn’t carry it. It was probably user error.
