NASCAR: New Hampshire race not being broadcast on NBC
By Asher Fair
The Crayon 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway is the second NASCAR Cup Series race on NBC’s portion of the broadcast schedule that is set to be shown on USA Network.
For the second week in a row, Sunday afternoon’s NASCAR Cup Series race is set to be broadcast live on USA Network as opposed to regular NBC.
This race, the Crayon 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, is the second of five consecutive races set to be aired on USA Network. It is the 20th overall race on the 36-race schedule.
USA Network took over as the alternative broadcast channel during NBC’s portion of the broadcast schedule, which encompasses the final 20 races of the season, after NBC Sports Network shut down at the end of 2021.
NBC and USA Network are each responsible for 10 races on the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series broadcast schedule.
NBC’s portion of the broadcast schedule includes the regular season’s final 10 races and the 10 playoff races. Four regular season races and six playoff races are on NBC’s schedule, while six regular season races and four playoff races are on USA Network’s slate.
Two races have been shown on NBC since NBC took over from Fox last month, while just one has been shown on USA Network.
Joe Gibbs Racing’s Christopher Bell is the reigning winner of Sunday afternoon’s 301-lap race around the four-turn, 1.058-mile (1.703-kilometer) oval in Loudon, New Hampshire.
FanDuel Sportsbook, which is currently offering fans an instant $200 for signing up and betting $20, lists Bell as the +450 favorite to win Sunday’s race. He is set to start from the pole position.
