Final Weekend TV Ratings (Update)

The crowd gets smaller every year at Barber, a direct result of IndyCar being essentially invisible on NBCSN
Editor's Note: The crowd gets smaller every year at Barber, a direct result of IndyCar being essentially invisible on NBCSN – no one knows the series exists after 10 years on a station hardly anyone watches. Why weren't 100% of races put on network TV like NBC or ABC?

UPDATE We have the final numbers now and they are horrible. All the hype that IndyCar ratings would blossom now that NBC and NBCSN had all the races. That prediction turned out to be Fake News, but then if you watch MSNBC and NBC news you already know the majority of it is biased and fake.

NBCSN earned a 0.19 final rating and 296,000 viewers for Sunday's NTT IndyCar Series Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsport Park. The table below has been updated.

04/09/19 Editor's Note: NBCSN continues to make IndyCar irrelevant with its minuscule TV Ratings. All the hype that when NBC got 100% of the IndyCar races they would promote the series so much the ratings would rise. So far they are down every race. Meanwhile F1 on ESPN is up every race.
