THE SPEED REPORT TO ROTATE WIDE VARIETY OF HOSTS
BYRNES TAKES OVER HOST ROLE AS INSIDE NEXTEL CUP BECOMES THIS WEEK IN NASCAR; WALTRIP, BIFFLE AND SCHRADER RETURN
In 2008, SPEED will use a wide variety of hosts for The SPEED Report, the network’s signature Sunday motor sports news program, headlined by veterans Bob Varsha, Krista Voda and Leigh Diffey. The new format will begin Feb. 17 at 7 p.m. ET, following the 50th running of the Daytona 500.
“SPEED has the most informed and well-connected motor sports experts in the business, and we plan to take full advantage of that on The SPEED Report in 2008,” said Frank Wilson, SPEED VP of Production. “From NASCAR to Formula One to sports cars to motorcycles, SPEED viewers will get news and perspective from the experts closest to the action.”
In addition, the long-running Monday night Inside Nextel Cup will undergo a format change for 2008, as veteran NASCAR personality Steve Byrnes takes over hosting duties on the newly named This Week in NASCAR, set to premiere Feb. 18 at 8 p.m. ET
This Week in NASCAR will move away from a NASCAR Sprint Cup race re-cap and analysis show, moving into a “handoff” position between events, reviewing topical items
from previous races in all three NASCAR national touring series, while also looking forward to upcoming events. Familiar faces, including Michael Waltrip, Greg Biffle and Ken Schrader will remain as regular Monday night panelists, with NASCAR crew chiefs, including two-time champ Chad Knaus also joining the show.
“Although much of what viewers have become comfortable with Monday nights on SPEED will remain, This Week in NASCAR will no longer be all about ‘yesterday,’ “ said SPEED SVP of Programming Steve Craddock. “We want to do more than review Sunday’s race … we want to get NASCAR fans ready for what’s coming next.”
SPEED is the nation's first and foremost cable television network dedicated to motor sports and the passion for everything automotive. From racing to restoration, motorcycles to movies, SPEED delivers quality programming from the track to the garage. Now available in more than 78 million homes in North America, SPEED is among the fastest-growing sports cable networks in the country and, the home to NASCAR on SPEED and an industry leader in interactive TV, video on demand, mobile initiatives and broadband services.
