The race was shown in full on ESPN, billed as "Auto Racing '82". Due to 10 caution flags, the race ran long, and thus the coverage ran through 4:30 PM when it was scheduled to end at 4:00 PM.

Commemorating the fact it was ESPN's last race of the year, a montage was done at the end featuring photos of all the winners of races they covered.
