O U T E D
>>63846905
Stupid bureaucracy and their arbitrary customs rules. Plus, high taxation due to F1 not being classified as sport (although this has been rectified now).
Plus, not enough spectator interest past the first year.
The first year had 95k people, second was 60k, third was 65k. The promoter was losing money.

>>63846973
They've actually recognized motorsports as legitimate sport now.
The thing that's keeping India out now is the fact that the customs department asks to be paid around Rs.600 crore (the estimated valuation of literally everything the F1 circus brings into the country) as customs duty, in advance.
The promoter has difficulties in procuring such a large sum for a single payment, even though 98% of it gets refunded (if everything that's brought into the country also leaves) later. They asked Bernie to help by contributing to the advance payments, and promised to pay him when getting the refund (and make up the difference out of their own pocket). But Bernie being Bernie decided to dump the race and add Austria (gr8 decision) Mexico (good decision) and Baku (shit decision) instead.
so, how many of these drivers are actually better than Maldonado?
>>63847009
Negrão.
Negro in Portuguese means the same but its less derogatory. If it was Negão (without r) it would literally mean Big Nigger.

As far as I know, most private promoters running F1 races, run at some amount of losses.
Jaypee were willing to work at the loss which would also include the payments to Bernie, (which aren't mentioned in the above figures, since the customs money would get refunded) as well as unsold seats eating into profits, because they're also building lots of apartment 'townships' in the area. Had the track taken off as a popular thing, those townships would have had an additional price hike, which is where they'd look to make their money back.

Is he going to lose again tomorrow?
This season was such a shitfest.
When Rosbeta choked in Austin, allowing the choco man to get his third title in the land of the free I just left the room. Went to the kitchen, made coffee and stared out of the window.
Other reactions?
>>63849236
Of course he is.
He's a Finn after all.
T: Finnish exchange student
>>63849271
It was a good race though
>>63849271
I was so sad because up until that point it was probably Rosberg's best race.
>>63849271
My gf saw that it caused me physical pain, so she muted the TV and we had cheeky sofa sex.
>>63849299
A lot of the events of the race were easy to see coming. Red Bull have had the best chassis since the Hungary upgrades, and they were already very good in wet conditions. Being faster than Mercedes early on and then much slower later in the race was a given.
It wasn't even as good as Hungary, and that race was a chaotic mess.
>>63849454
Hungary was the best race of the season, I agree with you there.
>>63849271
I kept the stream open but on mute, just sat on the window and lit a cigarette while staring at nothing.
>>63849271
I was there live, as I saw that happen I immediately got a migraine, went to my car, took 3 of my pills, drove home and then went straight into my bed.

Somewhat, but not too much. His airline went bankrupt.
>>63847942
A few, yes, but without F1 I don't think it's a very sustainable venture, economically. Especially since most people here are status-fags who'd only attend events if they're elite.
>>63849236
Hamilton butthurt levels are rising dangerously. It might be possible he takes Rosberg out trying to pass him. Gimi will cruise to a victory.
>>63850187
Rosberg also has a very old engine, which could come into play at some point.
Would it be a gift from god himself if the FIA finds some bullshit with Hamilton's engine and get his title stripped?
>>63850244
>SkyF1
>You see, you might think that an engine over twice as old would be a disadvantage to Rosberg, but in reality an engine is like a set of new shoes - the more miles you do, more you wear it in and the better it fits, the more comfortable it gets and the faster the driver becomes. Hamilton just hasn't managed to wear his engine in yet, which is why he's that much slower than his teammate.
>>63850300
not really because we've still sat through a shitfest season
>>63850333

I really don't understand Mercedes. They act as if their drivers are one person cut in half - They force both of them to use the exact same brakes, exact same suspension, exact same strategy and then complain when things don't go perfectly for them, or when the driver being disadvantaged by whatever the team nominates for that half of the season speaks to the media about it.
And what's more they seem oblivious to this being the cause of each and every fucking one of the 6 races they lost in the V6 era - with one car on an alternate strategy, or using a different brand of brakes, or a different fucking front wing angle, Merc wouldn't have put all their eggs in one basket and handed away the win.
I genuinely cannot see an outcome that doesn't end in either several more Singapores or catastrophic meltdowns inside the team because of their obstinateness.
They really fucked up by forcing out Brawn desu

Brawn leaving was the biggest mistake ever.
Toto and Lauda are only looking good because there's no real competition. Toto's way to emotional, and aggravated and let's the journalists walk all over him. You never see Brawn losing his cool, like he does.
Also I think that the reason they do it, is because they want "fairness". In all honestly (I really don't know) had one of the other cars been running another strategy could they even have done better? From what they've been saying they don't allow it since they would end up overall slower in their simulations. Also I think they have different setups, they share info, but not identical.
>>63866017
This year might be Toyota's best chance. Like in 99, and 14 they lost because they only entered two cars. Because of Dieselgate VW will only send two cars this year from some early rumors, but more importantly Toyota may get a bigger budget, and run a third car, since they spent almost no money last year trying to develop the 14 car for the 15 year.
My question is, for all they money the poured into F1, being one of if not the largest car company in the world, surely they can afford a third car?
>>63866076
I hope the rumours are true and that this year was shit because they put all effort and funds into the 2016 car.
>>63866076
Also to yoyr last question the reason they spend less now is because they embarrassed themselves and brought dishonor by spending so much in F1 for no results
>>63866162
Yeah. Toyota's said it in interviews, the car was so dominant in 2014, they didn't expect the others to catch up that quickly, and before Spa last year, gave up on the 2014 car and went straight to the 2016 model. It may be a turbocharged engine this year as well.

As bad as it sounds, everytime I see Alonso's car fail, I break out in a big smile. I just hate him so much, and everytime the car fails and he's stuck suffering at the back of the grid, he's just going insane, ever since he left Renualt, everywhere he's gone he's just never been able to get it together. I feel his personality just ruins a team, whatever it may be, it's just ironic. Leaves Ferrari and Vettel gets a better car at Ferrari, Leaves McLaren and spends a two years doing nothing, returns to McLaren, and Honda are literally shockingly bad. I even wonder if Honda had stayed would they have been able to win the 2009 WDC, or if they would have fucked it up on the engine/dev side.
>>63869994
i dont like him either but im not sure exactly why
>>63870047
I think because I grew up watching Micheal winning, I didn't like his competitors, but some I hated more than others. Alonso, just feels so smug, he just gives off this air that he's more important, and that he's the only one that matters.
He also looks really stupid with his facial hair, and he had that stupid dance, I wanted him to fall off the fucking car everytime he'd do that.
>>63870246
Sound like you're a bit sour m8. And that's coming from someone who drew 'dumb' hats on every picture of Mika Hakkinen between 1998 and 2001. (Mind you, I was between 7 and 10 at the time)
I didn't like Raikkonen or Alonso neither at first but ultimately I think they're two of my favorite drivers now. They were the first to win in the post-Schumacher period of F1, though Raikkonen could have won 2003 and Alonso did actually beat Der Michael in 2006.
Alonso is an arrogant moron, but he's a fun arrogant moron.
>>63870551
>Sound like you're a bit sour m8
100% understatement, kosher salt is more accurate
I've mellowed to Raikkonen, but literally nothing can make me like Alonso, I really wonder how fast he is now, I'd like to think Vettel is faster, and Hamilton as well (Rosberg to some extent as well, based on current pace).
