F1/FiA dying to get in on enshittification.
And to get nuked from orbit by EU competition law. But the FIA aren't the enemy here. They said that Andretti met all of the technical requirements to join the grid.
Yeah FOM just increased the F1TV subscription price by 50% in my country. Enshittification has already started. They really think they can charge the same price as other sports that have multiple matches per week.
Maybe try a VPN from a cheaper country? I've never tried it so I can't confirm it will work.
For what it's worth there is some value to F1TV beyond the race weekends. The archives are (imo) nice to watch during the off season weeks and during summer break. I'd also much rather watch their tech pieces and whatnot through the official stream and not secondhand on YouTube or something where Google gets a piece of the revenue.
Do whatever fits your life and budget. There's always the high sea.
They didn't want FOMO
This has really killed my interest in F1. Why watch when everything is set in stone.
And to think I still think that the ideal is 30 or 31 cars competing for 26 grid slots
I get increasing the anti dilution fund. The teams which stood by F1 during the rough times deserve that. What I don't understand is limiting to 10 teams. Sporting factors should supercede monetary factors. I see a court case being filed and big mess if this is agreed upon
Idiots
Gentrified sport.
I wonder if anyone in charge even cares about competitive racing, or if it's just empty PR designed to increase value.
Even the figure heads shill for FOM / FIA / Liberty instead of providing real insight and criticism. It's just getting to be too much.
if i hear brundle say “at least that sprint was better than FP3” one more time…
