NASCAR Fans Rip FOX For 'Embarrassing' Broadcast Sunday

NASCAR fans have long had a love and hate relationship with Fox Sports.

Fox Sports is one of the premier broadcasting partners for the sport. There are plenty of aspects about FOX's coverage that NASCAR fans enjoy. However, when it comes to the actual race broadcast, NASCAR fans often feel that FOX misses important moments during big races.

It happened on Sunday.

NASCAR fans accused FOX of missing at least four to five big moments during the Cup Series race on Sunday afternoon.

NASCAR fans accused FOX of missing:

  • Bubba Wallace getting spun out
  • Cody Ware spinning out
  • Josh Berry getting spun out
  • Josh Berry and Carson Hocevar's incident late

"Embarrassing," one fan said.

NASCAR fans bothered by Sunday's coverage

NASCAR fans ended up speaking out on Sunday.

"CW using CCTV along with nascar productions cams were clutch. Fox is bad really bad," one fan wrote.

"Fox doing this on purpose, then gunna go and provide the best coverage possible on the INDYCAR side of things," one fan added.

"We have missed half the incidents this year because of their coverage! Can't wait for Prime," one fan added.

"Fox used to be the standard for racing coverage 15-20 years ago," one fan added.

"Now you understand why the stands are empty, viewership is down, nascar gets bumped for golf and bowling. It's a sinking ship," one declared.

"I've been saying this for the last few seasons now, but FOX is not a serious broadcast partner. They focus more on ads & silly things. They also spend more time than any other network trying to get as much ad space as possible on your screen while showing less racing," one fan added.

It was a rough day on Sunday for NASCAR fans watching on TV.
