I would agree that Formula One is bigger on TV than NASCAR, but please don't bring up CART. NASCAR has a TV contract for hundreds of millions of dollars a year. According to CART financial statements, they lose money on TV.
I've heard a lot of BS about CART having big TV ratings worldwide, but when you look for the evidence to support those claims, it just isn't there.
