Charlotte final TV ratings
Hell has frozen over...
UPDATE: The NASCAR Cup Series playoffs at Charlotte earned a 1.95 rating and 3.218 million viewers on NBC, up 6% in ratings and 13% in viewership from last year (1.8, 2.86M) and just the fourth Cup Series race all season to post an increase, joining Michigan, Chicagoland and Watkins Glen.
Excluding rainouts, Sunday's race was the highest rated and most-watched at Charlotte since 2014 on ABC (3.1, 5.1M). It was the first race at Charlotte not to be affected by rain since 2014 (last year's start was moved up an hour). In a rarity, the story is less positive when including rainouts. The 2016 race, which was postponed from Saturday night to Sunday afternoon, had a 2.1 and 3.221 million on both NBC and NBCSN.
The telecast, which peaked with 4.4 million viewers from 5:15-5:30 PM ET, had a combined TV and streaming audience of 3.24 million.

The area football games were terrible, no baseball, or hockey, and the Ryder Cup was over by 10am and F1 by 9am. Those of us that were in our "Sunday, chillin, watching some sports mode" really only had the race....its good for NASCAR and in this area on Sunday, the Cowboys-Texans are the Sunday night game, so the Dover Race ought to do well as it is supposed to raining all day here anyway....
