The Tour Down Under is back for 2023, and here\u2019s how you can catch all of the action live on TV, streaming online or on catch-up.<\/p>\n

After two years in which the traditional season-opener for pro road racing was cancelled due to Covid-related travel restrictions, the racing starts on Saturday 14 January 2023 and continues throughout the following week, culminating on Sunday 22 January 2023.<\/p>\n

This year, both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s races are UCI WorldTour accredited, the latter for the first time.<\/p>\n

Eurosport will once again be showing live coverage of the Tour Down Under. As usual with racing in Australia, it\u2019s one for the insomniacs if you want to watch live in the UK, with coverage starting either at midnight for the women\u2019s racing<\/a> or 1am for the men\u2019s stages<\/a>. Early risers can catch the men\u2019s prologue at a more sociable 7.30am though.<\/p>\n

As usual, there\u2019s an on-demand option if you value your shuteye.<\/p>\n

Eurosport is being subsumed into Discovery+<\/a>, with a subscription costing \u00a36.99 per month or \u00a359.99 per year. It\u2019s available on a range of platforms including tablets, mobile, TV with Chromecast or AirPlay, Android TV and Apple TV.<\/p>\n

You can also watch the Tour Down Under on GCN+<\/a>. A monthly subscription to GCN+ costs \u00a36.99, the same as Discovery+; an annual subscription to GCN+ costs \u00a339.99.<\/p>\n

How can I watch the Tour Down Under 2023 live in the US?<\/h2>\n

According to the Tour Down Under website, NBC Sports<\/a> should be showing live coverage of the Tour Down Under, although there are no cycling events currently showing as scheduled on the NBC Sports site.<\/p>\n

You can also watch the Tour Down Under on FloBikes<\/a>, with subscription options costing from $12.49 a month.<\/p>\n

Both offer on-demand replays, although US live racing times are a bit more user-friendly than in Europe, with typical stage starts at 8pm Eastern, 5pm Pacific.<\/p>\n

Both the women\u2019s and men\u2019s racing starts with the Schwalbe Classic crit on Saturday 14 January, with a 5.30pm local time start in the centre of Adelaide for the women\u2019s race and a 7pm start for the men\u2019s race.<\/p>\n

Both races take in a flat 1.35km loop around central Adelaide and each lasts for one hour, plus a final lap. There are sprint primes 15, 30 and 45 minutes into the races. Expect fast-paced racing, hopefully without any crashes to take riders out for the rest of the week.<\/p>\n
