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.

[–] egonallanon@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

All their admin side of things are based in Charlotte in the US.

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah, but none of their sporting side are based in the States.

[–] evanuggetpi@lemmy.nz 9 points 9 months ago

It's ludicrous.

[–] Jumi@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The teams don't want to share the price pool

Great sportsmanship demonstrated by the teams!

They even patented branding for a Chicago GP, so maybe 4 US races in the near future…

It's Europe's nobility's sense of cultural superiority at its peak. Toto Wolff's comments on the matter sealed it shut, as far as I'm concerned. I have to wonder; if a European team wanted to come in as the eleventh outfit on the grid, would their application have been approved?

Bullshit lol, it's dollars and cents pure and simple. No team is joining, american or otherwise.

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

Maybe I'm wrong. It's just a discussion starter.
