Commercial breakdown: 2024 Xfinity 500

During Sunday‘s Cup race pre-race activities, NASCAR Reporter, Kim Coon, informed fans that, Ryan Blaney, was the driver mentioned most in the garage as the possible winner for the race. As the last laps wound down, the weaving, dramatic passes, wall-riding and slamming fenders culminated in just that predicted finish. No one needed the gift of prophecy, however, to know there would be commercials in the midst of all of that exciting racing as well. For those fans who like to know precisely how many ads there were, and how much time they took during the broadcast, here is this week‘s breakdown.
