Overnight Martinsville ratings up

Monday, April 03, 2006

 

Fox's broadcast of Sunday's DirecTV 500 Nextel Cup race at Martinsville Speedway earned a 5.1 overnight Nielsen Media Research rating and a 12 market share, Street & Smith's Sports Business Daily reports.

The daily says two markets - Indianapolis and St. Louis - were not included because of weather problems, but the rating was still 10.9 percent higher than the 4.6/11 last year's Martinsville race earned. The 2005 race, however, was a week later and aired opposite one of golf's major events, the Masters.

Average Rating: 0.0
