American Flat Track Announces 2019 NBCSN Broadcast Schedule

American Flat Track announced today its NBCSNbroadcast schedule for its 2019 season, maintaining its highly-coveted, weekend afternoon programming slots within two weeks of each event.

American Flat Track telecasts reached 41% more viewers in 2018 than in its inaugural year of 2017. This spike in viewership delivered a record-breaking total of more than 2 Million viewers tuning in during prime weekend programming slots.

American Flat Track is the most historic form of American motorcycle racing and is entering its 2019 season with significant momentum.

“NBC Sports has provided the platform for American Flat Track to reach millions of new fans across the U.S.,” said Michael Lock, CEO of American Flat Track. “With strong weekend programming slots and exciting storylines both on and off the track, we are forging the path to another record-breaking year for AFT in 2019.”

NBCSN, NBC Sports’ widely-distributed 24/7 dedicated linear sports network, has established itself as the Home of Motorsports in America. In addition to providing coverage of American Flat Track, NBCSN is also the home for NASCAR, IndyCar, Mecum Auctions, IMSA, Lucas Oil Pro Motocross and Monster Energy Supercross.

“American Flat Track has become a staple of our racing line-up on NBCSN,” said Jeff Macaluso, Senior Director, Programming, NBC Sports Group, “and we are excited to continue our partnership.”
