The FIA WEC race in Barcelona on TV and via live stream

It’s all set: today, 18 October, the World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC) holds the seventh race of the 2026 season. The venue is the 4.657-kilometre-long ‘Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya’. Genesis will start from pole position. But the competition from Alpine, Aston Martin, BMW, Cadillac, Ferrari, Peugeot and Toyota is hot on their heels. This naturally promises plenty of racing excitement.

The Six Hours of Barcelona gets underway today, Sunday 18 October 2026, at 12:00 (CEST). The race is therefore expected to finish around 18:00 (CEST). Naturally, you’ll be able to follow all the racing action from the comfort of your own home. Here are some options for doing so (all information is, of course, subject to change):

The WEC from Barcelona via live stream

The action from Barcelona can also be watched via live stream. There are three options available, though these are all subscription-based. RTL+ plans to broadcast the race on its platform on Sunday from 11.30 am. HBO Max will also be broadcasting the race between 11.30 am and 6.30 pm. The FIA WEC also has its own subscription-based platform (for desktop and as an app) on which the action is shown. This has been completely revamped for 2026 and is now called FIAWEC+. Various packages can be booked there. Commentary is available in English or French. You can also watch the action without any commentary. FIAWEC+ also features a range of onboard cameras that you can switch between. In addition, there is a timing monitor called ‘Live Timing Pro’, where you can track the current situation on the track. So there’s really nothing standing in the way of a motorsport-filled Sunday afternoon.
