On Sunday, during the Cup race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, a wedding was performed during a pit stop. While some fans were touched by the uniqueness of it, there may be some who would find it even more notable if a divorce could happen in the same time frame. Speaking of time frames, there were 120 commercials during the 198-minute broadcast.
