During the pre-race segment of Sunday’s Cup race in Atlanta, fans were told one of the considerations for the teams were the strong winds that were expected. Following the race, the nearly 60 lead changes, and Tyler Reddick’s dramatic win for the second race in a row were acknowledged. During the race there were commercials; as well as a three-minute segment without commercials, called ‘Toyota All Out’. For those fans who hanker for an even more specific breakdown of the amount of sponsor ads, and how much time they took during the broadcast, here is this week’s breakdown.
