Fox Sports officials say Sunday's coverage of the rain delay of the Aaron's 499 from Talladega Speedway still ranked as the top sporting event of the weekend. The Nextel Cup race wound up being run Monday after Sunday's event was postponed because of constant rain at the track.

Fox filled the rain delay slot with 13 driver interviews and a talk with actor Will Ferrell during the two-hour block before the race was officially postponed.
