How Much Is Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix? F1 Food Prices Viral | Entrepreneur
Just to enter the venue is $1,750 for a three day pass.
A reminder that F1 is a sport by the bourgeoisie for the bourgeoisie.
Can we get a Communist Party affiliated Chinese worker co-op car company to enter F1 and demonstrate the superiority of Xi Jinping Thought
Pretty sure any new teams joining has to be signed off by at least like, 50 people with ‘von’ in their name
ok then shoot those guys?
Teams will find new ones then still say no so they don’t have to split profits
make a communist F1 league that is better. like how saudia arabia made LIV golf. but china do it with F1.
That may be formula e
The problem is all the F1 engineers are located in Europe. Unless this hypothetical Chinese team plans to try build an F1 car from first principles, they’re going to need a European base, likely in the UK, where most F1 teams are based. Then you also need an engine, current and future F1 engines are hybrid, both using ICE (internal combustion engine) and battery technology. The ICE part of the powertrain is one of the most advanced and thermally efficient petrol engines ever made. Over 50% thermal efficiency. So unless this hypothetical team plans to build one of the most advanced engines ever made from first principles, building an engine would require collaboration with a manufacturer with tonnes of experience with internal combustion engines and turbocharging. And that’s just the two most important pieces of the puzzle.
As you can see, getting an F1 team up and running is a very complicated business. And that’s before clearing the bureaucracy of the FIA and FOM. That’s where Andretti is struggling at the moment, as they are unconvinced by Andretti’s plans. No one wants another backmarker team.
F1 but it’s trains.
In hindsight manufacturer teams quit F1 because it was too expensive back in late 2000s, BMW/Honda/Toyota all left just because of costs. Hypotheticaly speaking the first thing a Chinese corp could have done was to just buy those teams and those factories back then. Maybe secure deals to acquire those engines and develop them as your own.
The Chinese could own like 1/3 of the grid today. Sure as you said everything would have to be in Europe etc but the first principle of modern Chinese economics is just investment for long term and eventually they could have relocated back to China. There was even a period where F1 was trying to expand in Asia(Korea GP, India GP) and having major Chinese manufacturer teams in the top 5 would have changed a lot in the early 2010’s. All daydreaming now of course.
Way too much potential in F1 comes down to money and return on investment, those manufacturers treated F1 as a marketing budget just as much as a “R&D” division, the road relevancy rethoric was always false. Mercedes proved so many times for them it was just about winning and marketing.
Good luck. They just rejected andretti who has the backing of GM. Only way in seems to be buying an existing team
I wonder if any of these ghouls actually follows the races and geeks out over the car specs like an otaku would. My money they’re just posers there for the clout.
They’re in there. 1 in 1000 ultra rich car guys will actually be really into the cars themselves rather than the status symbol.
Some that come to mind are the guys that will endlessly restore, race, crash, repeat vintage racecars. They’ll get in turn-of-the-century deathtraps, slam into a wall, and basically go “ah i guess we’re restorin’ again” in a crossover episode of the ship of thesius and Sisyphus.
The only rich guys I sorta respect are the kind that will put themselves into harms way for their interests.
We need more of those rich eccentrics that tried to invent powered flight and kept killing themselves by gently crashing gliders with eight vertically stacked wings

lolI can’t even hate on the dumb sub billionaire. You know elon will never get in one of his own rockets.
He gets credit for taking a few billionaires to Davie Jones’ locker, too
No, that’s the name I work under

Uh. Hi?
ADD 1oz CAVIAR!
ADD TO ANY ITEM!
ANY ITEM!
You can’t buy good taste
You can buy, ‘oh didn’t you get the caviar jeoffrey snort this month’s numbers mustn’t be looking good snort you peasant’.
Caviar in the empanadas
From a Bluesky thread
“What’s the difference between F1 and Indycar?”
“Well, for starters Roger Penske would be tarred and feathered if he tried to charge you a c-note for a bowl of BBQ pork nachos.”
The difference is that F1 wasn’t killed by one failson.
I’m having trouble processing this, that’s over $100 American for anything?
Someone tell me that those numbers are missing a decimal point somewhere before I go absolutely fucking insane
Am I understanding right that a “fruit refresher” is just a bowl of fruit?
Looks like fruit over coconut granata. Marginally fancier than a fruit salad lol.

where’s a hurricane when you need one
Add 1oz Caviar* $400
Edit: To be clear, this is the bourg-box not the regular menu. You can probably get $50 nachos in the seats that cost as much as the caviar add-on.
this is why you need to work overtime for minimum wage while paying $2000/month in rent, otherwise the CEOs and landlords wouldn’t be able to afford their treats!
grand prix. big price
I stg pre-covid weekend tickets used to cost a bit more than that. Wtf happened
Let me guess. No outside food allowed…
well thank god at least the nachos are reasonable
Who do I run up to and scream in their face “You’re a grand pricks”
