or 2012, the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series – Canada’s premier racing series – will have all of its events tele- cast in English and French on TSN, TSN2 and RDS2. TSN, Canada’s Sports Leader, has been the series’ television home since its inception in 2007, while RDS2 is airing races for a second straight season. The schedule is highlighted by same-day
coverage on TSN of the Saturday, August 18 event at Montreal’s Circuit Gilles Vil- leneuve, leading in to the network’s NASCAR Nationwide Series telecast from the famed road course.
RDS will provide live coverage of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race from Montreal, marking the sixth straight year that the event is broadcast on the primary RDS platform with the event being re-aired on RDS2 later. Ten of the 12 scheduled NASCAR Cana-
dian Tire Series events in 2012 will have a one-hour show telecast nationally on a tape- delayed basis on both TSN and RDS2. The Montreal race and the September 22 season finale at Kawartha Speedway will be 90 min- utes in duration. Additionally, there will be a season-in-re-
view show telecast on Saturday, November 17 on TSN. Many of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series shows on TSN will be telecast adjacent
to its coverage of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series or NASCAR Nation- wide Series events. “TSN has been a tremendous partner to the NASCAR Cana- dian Tire Series from the very beginning and adding the Cana- dian French-language coverage from RDS2 gives race fans the best of both worlds,” said George Silbermann, NASCAR Vice-President regional and touring series. Randy Paul, managing director,
NASCAR Canada, said, “The NASCAR Canadian Tire Series showcases the best that Canadian motorsport has to offer and we’re extremely pleased to support our homegrown talent on the racetrack through coverage of the series on TSN, TSN2 and in French on RDS and RDS2.” “The support and enthusiasm from Cana-
Greg MacPherson across the country.”
dian fans for the NASCAR Canadian Tire Se- ries has continued to grow exponentially since our first race in 2007,” said Allan Mac- Donald, Senior Vice-President of Automo- tive and Canadian Tire. “This is large part due to our partners at TSN and NASCAR who continue to create thrilling experiences both on the track and on television for fans
