Thanks for the race

This was the sixth to last NASCAR race televised in 4:3 SD for viewers who didn’t had access to the originally intended 16:9 HD coverage. Every NASCAR race has been televised in 16:9 since the 2004 Daytona 500 & every race in HD since the 2005 Daytona 500. The letterboxing effect wouldn’t take place until 2011 with FOX, but TNT & ABC kept the 4:3 frame for those without HD until after 2012 (September 2016 for ABC) (ESPN would go letterbox for 4:3 viewers starting by mid-2011).

A great day for Michael Waltrip Racing as all three of their drivers finished in the Top 10: Clint Bowyer won, Mark Martin finished 6th and Martin Truex Jr finished 10th.
