Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series return to Chicagoland Speedway averaged 2.1 million viewers on TNT Sports, according to Adam Stern of Sports Business Journal.
The race marked the Cup Series’ first event at Chicagoland since 2019. The audience topped last week’s Sonoma race on TNT (1.8 million viewers) and was just below Prime Video’s five-race average of 2.29 million viewers earlier this season.
