The criticism that NBC Sports faced from some fans was also unwarranted, as they have been providing quality coverage after taking over from Fox. But NBC Sports reporter Dave Burns narrated Busch’s pit stop, raising questions about the quality of NBC’s broadcasting being similar to Fox.

“So he called right front right front. He came to pit road. They said are you sure it’s just the right front? He said, Well, no, you can change all four if you want so that’s what.
