How does a company like Ferrari allocate so much money to F1? Do they set aside a bigger percentage than other firms or are they way more profitable than im guessing? anyway im excited about the season and look forward to this thread

Tony Montana posted:Why is there so much money floating around? Is that more the question? How is this series doing as it does when NASCAR sponsorship is slim? Obviously they can justify the cost as F1 directly aligns with much of their brand image, R&D, etc, but it's still an interesting question imo. Also, I just came back from a consulting presentation at the Circuit de Barcelona and it happened to be the thursday of the 2nd week of F1 testing. It was unbelievable. F1 paddock's are insane.

My understanding was that the businesses in those conglomerates are financially independent, with their own P&L's and everything else. Regardless, I didn't know Ferrari was part of Fiat. It would make sense that even if Ferrari is completely independent from Fiat, Fiat subsidizes enough to make having a competitive F1 team feasible.

This was cool, especially that almost-pass @ ~2min30sec through turn 1. I also really like that they have to switch to a fully charged car mid race. Seems so decadent - exactly what a F1 fan appreciates.

I don't want to sound too dumb, but how the gently caress can a professional F1 team not even be ready for qualifiers? Did they rebuild Vettel's engine this morning or something?

ilmucche posted:Did this get posted? F1 apparently doing market research? I consulted for the circuit de barcelona this past march and we did a ton of stuff with VR and future applications of VR to boost ticket sales. F1 has insane control over every part of the sport that makes money... these poor racetracks...think of the racetracks...
