[TokenV]

brb a bunch of randos seem to be interested in the sport now because of a Netflix docu

brb we need more races in USA timezone

brb middle eastern countries throwing absurd amounts of money around to host races

brb we'll cancel an absolute pieces of history that has been hosting since the beginning of the sport

RIP Spa-Francorchamps

srs fuk desert money, fuk catering towards those new markets

tradition doesn't matter anymore

they already ruined football where the majority of games at top level are plastic clubs with foreign money

[beegeener]

elite sport is only about the money
if it dont pull in money it doesnt exist
its why there are no women playing sport. no one watches it not even women

F1 hasn't been good for like 30 years, can't really blame Netflix for turning it into a glorified go-karting championship.
We'll never see drivers Brabham, Moss, Fangio and Ascari ever again.

Lucky yanks with Austin, Miami and Vegas to come. It's all about the money. Not many ppl realise that 8/20 Premier League teams are either part or fully U.S owned.

I'm sure they can't wait to spend $100+ to stand on a corner and look at fence for a few hours. Gotta love flat street circuits.

Agreed OP, F1 did like 3 oversea events Japan, Australia and Brazil back in the day and those were like too much.
Spa-Francorchamps with a gently mist rolling in over Eau Rouge...
The sound of a V10 piercing the air while some hot German sloot with no bra on, jumps around waving a Ferrari flag.

F1 is going to kill itself by chasing after this childrens TikTok audience and Netflix fans.

Average ages of the audience they're chasing? 10-20.

How many of those 10-20 year olds have money for a Rolex, or to buy a car from Ferrari, Mclaren, Aston Martin and so on.

Those brands are pay up to $100's of millions in sponsorship and expenses to be in F1, purely BECAUSE of the current audience of 30+ age range people with disposable income. When those sponsors leave because the audience doesn't have disposable income, the teams will have less $$$ to build the "best cars in the world" for the "pinnacle of motorsport".

It's killing itself, but doesn't realise it yet.

Unfortunately "tradition" in every aspect of our lives are slowly going out the window. Liked F1 long before Netflix but after that I had the biggest DORK friend of a friend mention it and how he loves F1 now. I just rolled my eyes then sucked his dick

[knightofday]

OP is missing the whole point: they’re TRYING to destroy European tradition. Every aspect of it.

We’re in the “demoralization” phase as Uri put it.

If they replace the Belgian GP with another Middle Eastern circuit or a North American street circuit, they can go fk themselves

Spa is iconic

I learned a lot from that show and it was really interesting, but still can't stand watching cars go around in a circle for three hours, especially when the top five guys are the only ones winning everything unless they all crash out.

[EireGunner]

Yep can't watch many as they are on at ridiculous times.

I started watching back in the days of nigel mansell and could see almost every race on a Sunday lunch time or so.

And the level cuckery is insane

[Griggz]

Mika Hakkinen and Michael Schumacher era was the last GOAT for F1
