FS1 Revamped Schedule: June

June is the final month with NASCAR for FOX, and the NBA is now gone. 

Here is June:

Sunday:
11:00-NASCAR Raceday:
Before every race, there is always Raceday. That's it. 
12:00-NASCAR Sprint Cup Series or Monster Jam:
NASCAR is the draw of the day, but when it's on FOX, there is nothing else to really show. So, the next best option is Monster Jam. 
4:00, 5:00 and 6:00-Monster Jam:
FS1 is left with Monster Jam after the races end because they got no other programming. 
7:00-Major League Soccer:
The new contract has 7:00 Sunday MLS games, so this is where it is. 
9:00 and 10:00-The Ultimate Fighter: TUF is a very highly watched show for FS1 standards, so why not air last weeks episode at 9:00, and the new one at 10. 

Monday:
7:00-Street League Skateboarding:
With MLS taking Sunday Night, SLS can move to Monday Night. 
9:00-NASCAR Race Hub:
No other shows can fit here, and FS1 has no other live sports. So, Race Hub it is. 
10:00-MLB Whiparound:
Showing every highlight, the whip is good for ratings. 

Tuesday:
7:00-UFC Ultimate Insider:
8:00-MLB 162:
8:30-Big Sticks:
9:00-UFC Main Event:
With one MLB game moving from FS1 to FOX in mid-May, FS1 has only ancillary programming to show. 
10:00-MLB Whiparound:
Finally, a live show leading in to FOX Sports Live. 

Wednesday:
7:00 and 9:00-UFC Fight Night Prelims and Main Card: Why not put all Fight Nights on Wednesday, one every week. Also, it would be cool. 

Thursday:
7:00-UFC Ultimate Insider:
8:00-MLB 162:
8:30-Big Sticks:
9:00-NASCAR Race Hub
With the NBA done, FS1 has only ancillary programming to show. 
10:00-MLB Whiparound:
Finally, like Tuesday, a live show leading in to FOX Sports Live. 

Friday:
Afternoon-NASCAR Practice and Qualifying:
Like I said before, this kind of stuff can turn up 3/4 million people, so it's quality programming. 
7:30-NCWTS Race:
Draws a fairly sized turnout, like NSCS Qualifying and Practice. 

Saturday:
12:00-MLB: FS1's MLB games are producing numbers like 500,000, so it's good for a lead-in to Nationwide. 
3:00-NASCAR Nationwide Series:
These races are very strong draws, and sometimes beat out the UFC. 
6:00 and 8:00-UFC Numbered Event Prefight Show and Prelims:
Like with Wednesday, except the Main Card is on PPV, can we have a fight every week? Hopefully, because that would be cool. 

July is next, NASCAR is gone and MLB comes back for two games a week. 
Leave comments for new series.
