Apple TV 4K users could have the viewing experience of a lifetime for today’s NASCAR race.
This week, the NASCAR Cup Series is at World Wide Technology Raceway in Madison, Illinois. It is the first time in the history of NASCAR that a race is being held there.
The race itself is the Enjoy Illinois 300 that is set to start at 3:30 p.m. ET on FOX Sports 1 (FS1).
What makes it even more interesting is the fact that it will be broadcast in 4K. Apple TV 4K users that have subscriptions to live TV streaming services like fuboTV and YouTube TV will have the opportunity to stream the race live in 4K from those services.

Those that do not, they will have to download and install the FOX Sports app on their Apple TV 4K and log in with their TV provider credentials in order to get access to the 4K broadcast stream if it is not provided through their TV provider, whether that is a cable, satellite, or other live TV streaming service subscription.
So far, this will be the first race of the NASCAR Cup Series season to be shown in 4K.
Additionally, the United States Football League (USFL) game will also be available to stream in 4K on the FOX 4K channel.
Right now, the only Apple device with 4K compatibility to stream this on will be the Apple TV 4K.
Both fuboTV and YouTube TV costs $64.99 a month and are also available to stream on the iPhone, iPad and Mac. The FOX Sports app is available on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch too.
