Radical new look in works for Cup testing in 2009

BRISTOL, Tenn. — If the planned changes to the Sprint Cup testing policy remain as proposed for 2009, teams and crew chiefs will have to deal with a vastly different set of variables from those currently in place.

TV Times – Sprint Cup TV Ratings Still Up for ESPN’s Coverage

ESPN’s coverage of the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Michigan had a 3.9 household coverage rating, with 3,743,919 households (5.30 million viewers). Comparisons to the 2007 race are not direct as last year’s race aired on a Tuesday morning on ESPN2 after a two-day rain delay and earned a 1.7 rating. ESPN2′s coverage of the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Michigan was up from last year, earning a 1.3 household coverage rating in 1,269,087 households. The 2007 race earned a 1.2 rating. Ten of the past 11 telecasts on ESPN2 have shown increases as compared to the same race last year that also aired on ESPN2. This report came from ESPN Communications and the Jayski.com webpage.

Some folks have commented that they doubt those figures. But they come from neutral sources like the Nielsen Rating System. Add the fact that attendance is down due to the economy and many, of the absentees, are watching the races on the tube.
