What was in the cards for this week’s Cup race at Las Vegas? Speculations abounded about Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott getting into each other; whether Kyle Busch could pilot a hastily put-together car from the back to the front; and if Kevin Harvick could find that golden horseshoe that Jimmie Johnson used to have. None of those things happened on Sunday. But you could surely bet on there being commercials during the broadcast. For those who like to know precisely how many there were, and how much time they took during the broadcast, here is this week’s breakdown.
