It is pretty crazy if what they say is true though. $1500/person for a venues fire capacity when likely a 10th of that can actually see the race from the venue.

Wish I went to a F1 race before America got a hold of it. Prices are getting out of control. Likely cheaper to fly to Europe with a hotel to watch a race than Miami or Vegas. And they will likely go up to capitalize on it soon too.

The European races are going to have to raise prices, because otherwise they'll lose their slot. We're at the point where likely any new race going to a sports-washing dictatorship means one has to come out of Europe. So at renewal the Euro races have to come up with a bid more valuable to F1 than the highest paying place without a race.

And there are rumors the Saudis want another one, etc.

Hungary results are in! No time for witty writeup this week. Congrats to DoubleK for taking top spot (4 slotted, 10/10) and Jepworth in second (3 slotted, 10/10).

DoubleK builds a 14pt lead over bizaro86 for top spot with Agulati only 4 back of second place.

DoubleK was the leader going into this week and put down a commanding win. Basically Verstappen.

I was in second place and randomly crapped the bed. That probably makes me Perez.

From what I read last year the Sao Paulo one is easiest on the wallet.
