Fox officials made two public apologies Sunday in regard to last week’s broken camera rope at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Artie Kempner, lead director for Fox network’s coverage of NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series, apologized to drivers and officials during Sunday’s drivers’ meeting at Dover international Speedway.
During the network’s pre-race show, host Chris Myers read a statement from the network, saying “Many of you saw last week’s race at Charlotte, where a television camera cable dropped on to the track, interrupting the race, and unfortunately, injuring some race fans. At Fox Sports, we pride ourselves on bringing you the best race coverage and being a part of the NASCAR family. We regret what happened and we apologize to our partners at NASCAR, the drivers, our friends at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and most of all, the fans.” (NASCAR.com)
