SPEED continues its “big event” approach to covering NASCAR, as the recent addition of the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards Ceremony from Las Vegas will now serve as the exclamation point to Champion’s Week programming on the network.

“We welcome the opportunity to wrap up the NASCAR season on SPEED,” said network President Hunter Nickell. “The fans expect SPEED to be there for the entire season and with the addition of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards Ceremony, our 2009 effort will be the complete package -- from the Gatorade Duel in February to the crowning of the champion in Las Vegas in December.”

Steve Byrnes and Jeff Hammond will host SPEED’s coverage of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Awards Ceremony, with Mike Joy and Krista Voda introducing the drivers and other award winners during the ceremonies.

SPEED will open NASCAR Champion’s Week with special episodes of NASCAR Race Hub, celebrating each of NASCAR’s three national touring series on separate nights. On Friday, Dec. 4, SPEED will offer a day of NASCAR programming with a series of four special shows, entitled NASCAR Best of ’09, beginning at 5 p.m. ET (individual titles now listed below).

“The NASCAR season is nearly forty weeks of immeasurable intensity for the race teams and everyone else involved in the sport,” said SPEED SVP of Programming Steve Craddock. “There are so many memorable moments … moments that raise goose bumps or simply leave you scratching your head. It is unlikely anyone saw or heard all of them, so SPEED is creating four unique shows highlighting some of these “best of” moments including passes, finishes, pit stops, crew chief calls, wrecks, radio communication, flyovers, sound bites and television outtakes.”
