I'd imagine they'll keep it under the "sports" umbrella and air as per usual. I don't see them getting rid of all racing. Auto racing is a sport too.

In the end it probably won't change things. People who watch Speed for serious racing only watch/DVR the actual racing. People who watch the other BS programming don't watch the actual racing. It's a change to stuff neither side will really see the affect.

I do wish they'd dump everything but NASCAR and someone like Velocity would take up all the other racing, MotoGP, V8 Supercars, FIA GT1, WTCC, WRC, etc.
