This was a reference to how many people on average watch a Sprint Cup race each week. His car owner-Yates Racing-wanted to show potential sponsors how many people would see their logo if they sponsored their car. So far, no one has signed on for a full season sponsorship of the team.

CNN has a 'Styles at Wimbledon' photo-gallery up. Lots of logos and boring styles of course, but Urszula Radwanska seems to be wearing a swoosh-less top. Based on the skirt, it's probably from Nike. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0806/wimbledon.fashion/content.5.html Not sure whether this has been discussed…
