NASCAR entered Dover Motor Speedway after a fun weekend of racing in Alabama. Kyle Larson and Martin Truex Jr. won the first two stages, but neither of them won the event. In fact, Truex suffered damage on one of the restarts and Larson came up just short despite a late charge. It was a different Joe Gibbs Racing driver that claimed the victory.
At the end of the day, Denny Hamlin held off Larson for his third win of the 2024 season at Dover on Sunday. After a slight overview of the notable moments, here are the NASCAR TV ratings following the Würth 400 at Dover.
.@FS1 got 2.401 million viewers for Sunday's NASCAR race @MonsterMile; no direct comparison to last year because that event was postponed to a Monday.
🔲 Top five markets:
1) Greensboro – 3.43
2) Charlotte – 3.33

NASCAR and FOX Sports 1 earned 2.401 million average viewers for the Würth 400 at Dover, which is not comparable to the 2023 event since it was run on a Monday. The last two Dover races in the Cup Series have been postponed. Therefore, NASCAR had not run the NextGen car at Dover on a Sunday until this year.
Now, the Cup Series is focusing its attention on Kansas Speedway, as the 12th official weekend of the 2024 NASCAR season will soon be underway.
