Q. I heard that Nascar is moving from XM to Sirius next year. Is that true?
A. Yes. Starting in January 2007, SIRIUS becomes the Official Satellite Radio Partner of NASCAR. SIRIUS will broadcast all Nextel Cup Series, Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series races live on a dedicated 24/7 NASCAR channel.
Opinionated Nextel Cup champion Tony Stewart will host a live talk show exclusively on SIRIUS. Matt Yocum will co-host and the two will take calls from listeners and talk to prominent guests covering the spectrum of motorports. The two-hour weekly series, "Tony Stewart Live," premieres in January. Previews begin on SIRIUS in October.
Quoting this...
Tony Stewart: "It's an honor to be a part of Sirius and its commitment to NASCAR. Our show will allow us to speak with the fans on our terms, where we're free to talk about anything and everything, from racing and rock-and-roll to our travels across America. It's a unique opportunity, and we plan to make the most of it."
