Just shows my bias but man, when I saw the headline I was hoping he was making a political statement about racing in Saudi Arabia but that would be quite out of character
When an oil depot gets blown up a handful of miles from a track and the race still goes ahead you know Saudi Arabia will keep it's f1 race for a while yet. It would be interesting to see the amounts paid by the race organisers to host. Presumably Abu Dhabi are top due to hosting the final race of the season.
Saudi Arabia and Qatar are those that pay F1 the most (officially): $55 million
