While I hope it works out for Liberty and F1, I can't help but think that the prices for fans at Las Vegas and Miami will really turn off casual fans. For what it costs to see one of those, the serious fans are already going to the traditional European races.
Because those races are not for fans, they are for corporate. And for influencers.
Exactly. I read that boring text, created at great speed during inflationary circumstances but great economic potential for external stakeholders, and it could be about anything. It’s a typical investors gobbledygook BS that bores the crap out of me. This is not about F1 or racing, it’s meant for ‘economic external partners’ or whatever.
We knew this would come once an American investment party would take over.
i was thinking of going to vegas, i have the time off already. but i saw the prices and said nope. i went to the formula e race in portland, it was much more in my budget. and i had a great time.
I'd love to see a Fomula E race in person - it looks like they get pretty intense.
