Feels Villeneuve posted:F1 existed back when like literally the only actual road car makers involved were Ferrari and Renault and everything else was tiny fraud teams from Britain, it's not inherently a manufacturer-based sport, it's just been that way for several points in its history. That's not my point and you know it. There would be no money and no prestige in F1 if you reverted back to V12s. It wouldn't be F1. It'd be yet another poo poo tier series no one cares about or watches except for autists who don't enjoy racing unless it's appropriately loud.

Probe me for a month for each Stroll podium next season.  I can't wait until he proves, yet again, to be an insanely average driver with no redeeming qualities.

I dunno how it plots along that decline but sports viewership is down in general. Not that this absolves F1 from often pumping out some truly boring racing over the past decade.

I mean I guess F1 has never been that exciting to watch so, eh I guess we've got errrrr the drivers personalities? Mostly faceless manufacturers spunking money away on a marketing exercise against tiny teams run by tax frauds and criminals? AIDS?

Lmfao: https://www.forbes.com/sites/csylt/2018/01/06/f1-tv-audience-reverses-by-40-million-under-revised-measurement-system/#655a48fb3a52quote:Tellingly the Liberty filing and F1s 2016 Global Media Report describe the audience figure as being global whereas yesterdays press release does not say the same about 2017. It is understood that the 2016 figure was calculated using data from just 10 markets which was then extrapolated to give a total for the 200 territories worldwide. In contrast, data from 63 markets was used to derive the 2017 figure of 352.3 million. If this measurement system was applied retrospectively to 2016 it would yield a similar total which is why the press release states that there was not a decrease in this specific number. All the pre-2017 numbers on that chart are grossly inflated because under Bernie they extrapolated worldwide metrics based on data from 10 countries. 1500quidporsche posted:It gives the source right in the image lol Oh right, let me just mash F1GLOBALMEDIAREPORT.NET/EASYTOREADCHARTS into Netscape Navigator

The Kimoa Kid posted:The dumbass part about this is that no sponsors or manufacturers are going to want to be involved in an F1 that inexplicably refuses to let go of the past and clings needlessly to giant, fuel-guzzling V12s when the world has obviously moved on. It'd just be tiny privateers running poo poo-tier drivers on shoestring budgets without any of the respect that makes F1 what it is today, and the world doesn't need two IndyCars. Get this: hybrid V12s

Not that this absolves F1 from often pumping out some truly boring racing over the past decade. It's largely this. TV ratings don't account for streaming services, which have increased recently. Now whether or not this specific report accounts for online viewership, I don't know.

We can see that maybe half the drivers in the field could compete for a championship if their cars were equal. Stroll is not one of them.

I would love for F1 to go to a formula where you can use any kind of engine you want, so long as it produces X amount of power from hybrid motors and is limited on fuel consumption, just so we can see everyone choose four or six cylinder engines.
