Tour de France

[franky1961]

Hello all,

Maybe someone can tell me where i can follow the Tour de France on television, here in Thailand?

Are there thai television channels that air the Tour, or do i need to buy a satellite disk?

If so what is the best availible.

Thanks.

Eurosport show it, and I think True carry Eurosport on satellite and cable, but check before you subscribe

Thank you Streetcowboy, i will check it out. Anyway i think i have a few day's more before it starts, since the Dutch police wants to go on strike on the 4th and 5th. Lets hope the do this a few day's later and let people enjoy their sports.

True doesn't carry Eurosport.

I don't think any of the Thai providers carry Eurosport anymore after GMMZ stopped.

It can be viewed in Thailand though if you have Sat Net, Myanmar, or K+, Vietnam sat boxes.

I view through K+, bought the box and paid upfront for a year at a cost of 15200 bht.

Either system can be bought through Satthai in Bangkok who I personally had very good service from.

K+ is quicker to activate for some reason.

Astro, the Malaysian satellite provider, carry Eurosport, and can be received as far North as Bangkok, if not further, I think

Astro is another option. Used to have it myself, brilliant until the card provider tried to do a runner with the year upfront payment for the card! Has easily the best channel line-up but then again is quite a bit more expensive and as you rightly point out, doesn't cover all of Thailand.

Used to know a guy who watched it in Buriram but he did need something like a 10ft dish!

it is also live on things like iptv and Kodi starting with the pre race this Thursday night local time

Tour de France has a very long story : here is a youtube document which show all the winners from 1904 ( sorry, only in French but rare archives images )

the last 10 minutes speak of Lance Amstrong ( old film , they didn't know yet he was a cheater )

Thanks all for the replies, you also can follow online by livestream365.com. Thay have eurosport live.

Small local cable providers often include Eurosport. Ours does and has full Tour coverage start to finish everyday

Ask around for the True alternatives in your area, there is usually at least one if you're near any reasonably sized city.

You can also watch it here on ITV4 http://www.viewabroad.com/#

I don't see why all the invective is targeted at Chris Froome when there's nine riders ahead of the best Frenchman. They just have to accept that this is their Wimbledon...
