Over the past weekend, in Saudi Arabia, a new and imposing WWE personality named Oba Femi secured the title of ‘King of the Ring,’ having overpowered several brutes who momentarily stood in his way. Correspondingly, NASCAR’s Shane Van Gisbergen conquered the Sonoma Raceway in Northern California over the course of two races, and over dozens of racing competitors. For the fans that were watching Sunday’s Cup race from home, they got to witness that awesome domination, as well as some commercials. For those folks 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.
