Commercial breakdown: 2024 Coca-Cola 600

Fox’s Memorial Day broadcast of Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 race was filled with the respectful honoring of the service men and women who have died in the name of freedom. Unfortunately, rain and lightning moved in and shortened the long race, but plenty of sponsor love was still shown in the form of commercials. For those who would like to know precisely how many ads there were, and how much time they took during the broadcast, here is this week’s breakdown.
