F1 wants US $s for their stock
F1 wants US eyes on their races
F1 wants 3 US races
F1 doesn’t want a 2nd US team
Tbh I don’t count Haas as a US team. They are based in Europe and besides being “Haas” they don’t have anything American.
All their admin side of things are based in Charlotte in the US.
Yeah, but none of their sporting side are based in the States.
What’s the shortest start/finish straight on the calendar? The only real limit to the number of teams in my mind comes purely from how much longer the cars are that at a certain point the grid has to wrap around the final turn. I don’t think we’re anywhere near that on any of the current tracks, though.
The thing is, in order to gain grade 1 status a track must have capacity for 12 teams
- F1 has lost its way
- The teams are too greedy for that sponsorship money so they block competitors
- F1 is too expensive. They need to massively LOWER the budget, stop the revenue sharing and double the number of teams.
Also get rid of the stupid hybrid and go back to V8 or V10. Tone down the emphasis on aero and make cars that are raceable without all the aero tricks.
F1 is boring. I only watch old F1, pre hybrid days and nothing else.
