How do the findings in the last slide make you feel about television advertising?

At a racing event, the commercials are the race cars. When a fan watches a race, either in person or on television, they’re NOT going to:

• talk to another person to avoid seeing the talk to another person to avoid seeing the sponsorssponsors• get up and do something elseget up and do something else• switch to another channelswitch to another channel• fast-forward through the racefast-forward through the race• turn the volume down or mute itturn the volume down or mute it

For fans who attend a race event, even walking through the Manufacturer’s Midway is not considered commercials “to be avoided”. The Midway at a motorsports event is more like a carnival, where fans can buy merchandise, get autographs and have a good time… all the while being positively bombarded with marketing messages!
