In a press release issued by Daytona International Speedway today, it was announced that this Saturday, the Daytona 200 would be streamed live on www.FansChoice.tv free of charge. Now run under a new sanctioning body, ASRA, it was unclear whether fans would be able to view the race, which boasts an entry list of 50 riders, including five past winners.

The Daytona 200 will be a 57-lap race on the 3.51-mile road course showcasing riders aboard 600cc sportbikes battling for a purse of $175,000 with the race winner also being awarded a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.

The release did not state who would be commentating the race, or if there would be commentators at all.

Qualifying for the starting lineup for the Daytona 200 will take place on Friday, March 13 with the race going green the following day at 1 p.m.

Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
