NASCAR is back, and it is easier than ever to watch without paying for overpriced cable TV. In the past becoming a cord cutter meant missing out on NASCAR. Now you can watch every single race without agreeing to a 2-year contract.

The following is our guide to watching NASCAR as a cord cutter.

FOX & NBC

Many of the biggest races every year are 100% free on FOX and NBC. A good antenna will give you these races without the need to pay for anything.

If you can’t get FOX or NBC for free, check out Sling TV, PlayStation VueYouTube TV, Fubo TV, or DIRECTV NOW to see if they offer them in your area.

FS1 & NBCSN

Just 2 years ago you would have had no way to watch races on FS1 & NBCSN without cable. Now you have several great options. Here is a quick rundown of a few options to get FS1 and NBCSN.
