ABC and NBC Sports Network to again split IndyCar broadcasts

ABC and NBC Sports Network will again split the IndyCar race broadcasts in 2017. Of course ratings will be horrible on NBCSN again, which will continue to hold back IndyCar from growing. ABC will once again save the day and it will be their TV ratings that prevent IndyCar from going under completely. After 2018 the IndyCar contracts are up for renewal and one can only hope NBCSN is nowhere to be found after 2018. They do a good job on the broadcasts but their ratings are so bad across the board, if IndyCar is to ever regain its former glory they cannot have their races on NBCSN.
