To watch today’s race, you’ll need a subscription to the Blue tier, which includes access to your local network affiliate’s live feed (excluding CBS) and USA Network. To level up your coverage and get access to ESPN and TNT, subscribe to the Orange + Blue tier plan (recommended).
The Blue tier is $45 per month. The Sling’s Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform currently offers 50% off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $30 for the first month. (Some shoppers are seeing an introductory deal for $25 off your first month of Sling TV, though your experience may vary.) A Sports Extra add-on is available ($15 per month) with 19 sports-centric channels, including Golf Channel, Big Ten Network, NFL RedZone, MLB Network and Tennis Channel.
The streamer has a new prepaid offering for football season called Sling TV Season Pass. You can get four months of the Orange + Blue tier, plus the Sports Extra add-on, for $219. That’s a savings of $81 over the usual price.
Note: Because Sling TV doesn’t carry CBS, you won’t be able to watch CBS-aired programming like next year’s NFL games on CBS. To watch these games, plus PGA golf, UEFA Champions League and more live sports, we recommend you add the Paramount+ add-on to your bundle. (Note that Paramount+ and CBS Essentials are both subsidiaries of Paramount Global.)
