An average of 385,000 viewers per race is an increase of !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , but still doesn't even swing a stick at American sports, including NASCAR's sinking numbers — numbers that still pulled 5 million-plus for the Ford EcoBoost 400 at Homestead-Miami.

I know the international viewership numbers demolish the American numbers, but at least they're making gains.

I imagine having an American team in F1 would help gain American viewership.

Or down, like they did when F1 switched from SPEED to the NBC family. I'd probably chalk that up to people not knowing where to find coverage though... that and NBC Sports typically being part of expanded sports packages.
