Saturday night’s season-opening Budweiser Shootout at Daytona 500 together with Daytona 500 Qualifying Presented by Kroger on Sunday afternoon generated more than 36,000 web streams at FOX TV.com.
“All in all, the big winners were the race fans,” said MRN President and Executive Producer David Hyatt. “We had more than 36,000 streams on MotorRacingNetwork.com alone and haven’t gotten a final tally from our affiliate stations which, for the first time ever, had the opportunity to provide the broadcasts via the Internet on their own websites. We expect a lot of fans to tune in or click on to Thursday’s Gatorade Duel at Daytona. We encourage them to check their local station’s schedule as well as the audio stream on FOX TV.com.”
Starting its 43rd year of broadcasting, Motor Racing Network is even more accessible in 2012 with the addition of live web streaming for fans to hear MRN race broadcasts and other programming throughout the year – available at www. FOX TV.com.
