Dustin Long of the Virginian Pilot got in two questions to NASCAR Chairman Brian France about TV ratings as he walked out of a press conference room after having announced that NASCAR will switch to E15 fuel beginning next year in Cup, Nationwide and Trucks. Here's Brian on the declining TV ratings:
Brian: "We're working on it. Racing is great and over time that takes care of things. We'd like to have better ratings but we will over time.''
On what more he can do and the idea doing like IndyCar with commercials and the race sharing the TV screen together: "We'll look at everything we can do. Ultimately, the racing, which is phenomenal, will carry the day. That's our product.''(Virginian Pilot)(10-17-2010)
