[This edition of the weekly commercial breakdowns is missing the first half hour of this race due to unforeseen circumstances.] The sun shone in New Hampshire on Sunday, and an exciting Cup race was held. The dominant driver triumphed, and those in attendance and watching at home got to see drama in many forms. Those watching at home also got to see pitches from particular sponsors in the form of commercials. For those who like to know precisely how many ads there were, and how much time they took during the broadcast, here is this week’s breakdown.
