[quote="Dr. Panzernacker":65530]why are tens of millions spent on it each year? and why do like ten times as many fans watch it instead of indy racing? F1, COOL, who's in the lead? schumacher, who's in second? some guy who's three laps down.[/quote:65530]
Ermmm people all across Europe, Asia, North America, Australia, and South America watch F1. I'd be willing to bet that the number tuned in for each race easily breaks 75,000,000. Not to mention races like Germany's Grand Touring and Britain's TOCA circuit. Touring car racing is way more exiciting. Also there is the Japanese races which are EXTREMELY badass but are just about never televised.
