Like the Freezing Atlanta Temps, Ratings Take a Dip

What’s Happening?

NASCAR fans and Mike Joy’s epically-dubbed “keyboard warriors” continue the barrage of negativity towards FOX Sports, its coverage of the NASCAR Cup Series, and wonder why the ratings are down in 2023. 

You need to know: 

• Ratings have sustained a downward trend throughout the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season. 
• Fox earned a rating of 1.95 and 3.422 million viewers, down from the 2.36 rating and 4.003 million from last year’s inaugural race on the new Super Intermediate-style Speedway. 
• Fans of the sport continue to unleash an ever-changing narrative of “why” the ratings are down each and every week and sustain the ire of Mike Joy’s comments on the “keyboard warrior” modus operandi. 

In The Stands

Michael thinks it’s a driver marketing issue.

Ryan Blaney thinks so too…wasn’t in the pre-race advertisement so they gave him an entire studio!

The rating’s experts come marching in…don’t lift off of your opinion. Ever.
