• This is the third week in a row that NASCAR has seen a ratings increase for a race verses one season ago. This is a good trend from the beginning of the season where the first eight races saw decreased ratings from a season ago.
• Chase Elliot coming back combined with some decent races appears to have convinced some new fans to stick around for a few more weeks. It is also worth noting that NASCAR is no longer going head to head with March Madness either.
• Fans were generally excited about this news on social media, and they were happy to see the at-track attendance on Monday as well. This increase in ratings continues to give NASCAR more leverage as negotiations for its’ next TV deal intensify.
