The NASCAR Cup Series continued its run of good racing at Texas Motor Speedway as it started out the Round of 12. It was an intense event as Kyle Larson, Kyle Busch, Ryan Blaney, and Tyler Reddick all saw issues that have hurt them in the Cup Series point standings.
At the end of the day, William Byron stole the victory for the sixth time in 2023 and clinched a spot in the Round of 8. After a slight overview of the notable moments, here are the NASCAR TV ratings following the AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400.
.@USANetwork got a 1.16 rating and 2.00 million viewers for Sunday's NASCAR race at Texas, up from a 1.11 rating and 1.908 million viewers last year, though the 2022 edition had a rain delay in the middle of it.

It is a positive for NASCAR to experience positive growth in viewership as the 2023 season has been rough overall. Despite the rain delay factor, Texas has produced good numbers over the years and it hasn’t changed. Now, the sport will look to build momentum to close out the year.
NASCAR now heads to Talladega Superspeedway for the YellaWood 500 as the Cup Series continues the Round of 12 this weekend.
