01/30/07 FOX Sports, its cable brother SPEED, and approximately 300,000 racing fans are set to descend upon one of the country’s most recognized and exhilarating sports landmarks—Daytona International Speedway—for an extended run of racing action that culminates with live flag-to-flag coverage of the most exciting and most-watched motorsports event in the America: NASCAR’s Daytona 500 on FOX, Sunday, Feb. 18 (2:00 PM ET).
Prior to live, exclusive coverage of The Daytona 500 on Feb. 18, FOX Sports launches its 2007 NASCAR on FOX season under the lights of Daytona International Speedway on Saturday, Feb. 10 (8:00 PM ET) with a prime time presentation of The Budweiser Shootout. This 70-lap exhibition pits the fastest of the fast as pole winners from the previous year and past champions go all-out in a spark-filled sprint for the purse. The following afternoon, on Sunday, Feb. 11 (2:00 PM ET), FOX Sports presents live coverage of Daytona 500 Qualifying as the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series’ best test their skills around Daytona’s 2.5-mile, 31 degree banked tri-oval in a race against the clock that determines who claims front-row positions in the Daytona 500.
Twelve straight days of Daytona Speedweeks coverage races into action on Thursday, Feb. 8 (8:00 PM ET) when SPEED presents the Budweiser Shootout Drawing Special. Highlights of SPEED’s 75 hours of programming from Daytona include the network’s first-ever live presentation of the Duel 150’s, a pair of 50-lap Daytona 500 qualifying races that set positions 3-43, on Thursday, Feb. 15 (2:00 PM ET), followed by a prime time replay at 9:00 PM ET.
SPEED also presents a live, prime time presentation of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season opener on Friday, Feb. 16 (7:30 PM ET), the ARCA season opener on Saturday Feb. 10 (4:00 PM ET) and dozens of hours of on-track coverage surrounding qualifying and practice sessions.
“February 15 will officially be ‘Duels Day’ on SPEED," said Hunter Nickell, SPEED Executive VP & General Manager. “SPEED will come on the air at 11 a.m. with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series practice and roll right into coverage of the Duel 150’s with a special edition of NASCAR RaceDay. SPEED will be the home of the Duels, the NASCAR Nextel All-Star Challenge and the NASCAR Nextel Pit Crew Challenge for the next eight seasons, and the fans will be a big part of how SPEED elevates the coverage of all three of these signature events."
In addition to extensive on-track action, Daytona Speedweeks marks the return of popular NASCAR on SPEED programming, including NASCAR RaceDay, Trackside Live, NASCAR Live!, Inside Nextel Cup, Wind Tunnel with Dave Despain, NASCAR Victory Lane, NASCAR Performance, Tradin’ Paint and The SPEED Report.
