Officials from NHRA and FOX Sports have unveiled the 2017 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series television schedule for the season's Sunday eliminations shows. The 2017 season is highlighted by 16 live Sunday finals shows, including four on the FOX broadcast network.


The 2017 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series will open with a live Sunday broadcast of the 57th annual Circle K NHRA Winternationals on the FOX broadcast network. The other three Sunday finals shows that will be aired live on the FOX broadcast network include the Mopar Mile-High NHRA Nationals in Denver, the NHRA Northwest Nationals in Seattle and the prestigious Chevrolet Performance U.S. Nationals from Indianapolis.


In all, FOX Sports 1 and FOX will air more than 550 hours of original NHRA programming. FOX Sports' combined networks, including FOX, FS1 and FS2, will broadcast coverage of the Lucas Oil Series, J&A Service Pro Mod Series and repeats of Mello Yello Series race coverage.
NHRA races also will appear in Canada and the Caribbean through FOX Sports Racing, as well as be available through the FOX Sports GO app that provides live streaming video of FOX Sports content at home or on the go and now is available to 86 million subscribers.
"We are so excited to bring drag racing fans another year of NHRA on FOX," said Peter Clifford, NHRA president. "NHRA Drag Racing saw tremendous success last season in the first year of our partnership with FOX Sports and we are eager to continue that success in 2017. FOX Sports provides fans with a behind-the-scenes look at the fastest motorsport series on the planet and we are thrilled with the 2017 broadcast schedule."
