FS1 Revamped Schedule: May

Sunday:
11:00-NASCAR Raceday:
Before every race, there is always Raceday. That's it. 
12:00-NASCAR Sprint Cup Series or NBA:
If the NASCAR race is on FOX, FS1 gets playoffs. If  the NASCAR race is on FS1, FOX gets playoffs. 
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:
8:00 and 10:30-NBA:
Every show from April is relegated to FS2 to make room for the playoffs. 

Tuesday:
7:30-NBA:
Tuesday's a good night because they'll have an NBA Playoff game followed by MLB in prime time on the west coast. 
10:00-MLB:
A Tuesday game of the week frees up Saturdays a lot. Plus, it's a good draw. 


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 and 9:30 or 7:30 and 10:00-NBA:
FOX receives playoff games starting in mid-April and they have the room. 

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. 
10:00-NBA:
With a NASCAR lead-in, the playoffs should be OK. 

Saturday:
7:30-Bundesliga:
Look what NBC did with Premier League, now I'm not saying FOX has to have a match weekly, but they need some games on FS1 with the key game of the final week on broadcast. 
10:00-NASCAR Practice:
It's a pretty big draw, so it's good for FS1. 
12:30-NBA:
Playoffs are the whole month, so FS1 gets games all month
3:00-NASCAR Nationwide Series:
It's a very big, 2,000,000 viewer draw. 
6:00 and 8:00-UFC Numbered Event Prefight Show and Prelims:
Like with Wednesday, except the Main Card is on PPV, we would have a fight every week? That would be cool.
