Some of the races are broadcast on regular TV like NBC. Most are on the cable only channels. With my wife's insistence we have the "sports packages" and lots of the "sports" seem to grudgingly show racing. They will cut off the driver interviews or other interesting parts to cut to a replay of a some game payed in the 80s, or to show women's tiddly winks or poker. They seem to love talking head show with people just talking about other people playing a game. Lots of people talking about someone else playing a game, and discussing it with real passion. Then cut to a replay of a football game from the 70s. Talking about and showing people play a game like bowling or golf is popular with those channels.
A real sport like racing is not shown as much as games, even though they all claim to be sports shows.
