Cup RACE thread --- Daytona

[Kiante]

That tells me ESPN isn't paying much to carry F1, if anything. Probably no production costs either, just carrying someone else's feed.

Bingo.

They purchase the broadcast from Sky Sports and has a sponsor for commercial free coverage.

Pennies on the dollar compared to an entire production team.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

They get rights for free and just simulcast the Sky F1 broadcast.

So get NASCAR to give away the race for free and someone else to pay the coverage costs. Easy peasy.

Apples and suspension bridges.

No one picked Blaney…good luck with that

Hmmm

 

[KTMLew01]

Odds: How many wheels fall off after this pit stop?

At least one.
At least 2.
More than 2?

Harry Gant wins in the Hudson!

Is anyone?

 

[Tony_K]

I'm refusing to buy Busch Light because they stuck Kenny G in their commercial.

 

[KTMLew01]

I still think NASCAR sent the Bat Signal. NO MORE WRECKING!

 

[Kiante]

Is anyone?

Don't have a problem with him.

Good dude.

I may get some flak for this but I feel like Mike Joy always mentions drivers from before the modern era a little bit too much.

I don't care what Richard Petty won this race 7 times before the modern era, his insights don't do much for today's day and age. Mike is a historian, but I personally could do without the nostalgia of 40+ years ago

NASCAR has literal TV Timeouts and Fox stays on the air during them.

You can go to the farm with Carl Edwards.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Five wide on pit road.

 

[KTMLew01]

Did the 2 car break?

Missed his pit stall.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Chase stalled it on pit road.

If you need a break with fewer commercials

 

[Kiante]

Chase is screwed.

 

[34R7H130UND]

Chase is done

 

[TexasRaceLady]

That was a chaotic round of stops.

 

[kkfan91]

Chase is screwed.

19 laps to end of stage if he loses the lap he can get lucky dog

 

[Kiante]

That shot was really cool of Chase restarting the car.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Chase is screwed.

But he looks cool with flames coming out pipes on both sides.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Chase is screwed.

Still on the lead lap. He ain’t cooked yet.

 

[KTMLew01]

Did the 2 car break?

It was Cindric revving his car.

 

[kkfan91]

Chase is done

Nope he'll probably get lucky dog and be fine

Idk, some new fans might be watching this who don't know the history of the sport.

 

[DIDIT]

So, I couldn't tell if they got the right rear on Blaney changed, but they went over to doit.

It didnt look like they did, but it was hard to tell.

Apparently they can't make enough by running commercials only during those breaks.

Beats Hell out of a one hour edit on Wide World two weeks later, but my standards are low.

 

[nickp]

Can we get some side by side? I'm tired of full screen commercials

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Bring on the heartbreaking lost

 

[JBone88]

Awfully impressed with RFK. Both cars have been fast all week.

All the Fords have been up front. Except Logano surprisingly.

Thank God... Logano would've taken out the field with some stupid block already

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Such Bs. Kes will win after he takes out most cars that were a threat

 

[CodeMan125]

Thank God... Logano would've taken out the field with some stupid block al

Hopefully that doesn't happen today.
