Poor spectator attendance at the recent Italian Grand Prix and rumours of F1 being for sale two red lights the sport needs addressing.
Let’s hope to see wheel-to-wheel racing between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen without red flags and race stewards at the Russian Grand Prix
We will wish for just good, hard, wheel to wheel racing in Sochi during the Russian Grand Prix. One aspect concerning the Monza weekend rose from the offices of F1 owners and the president of the FIA, Jean Todt.he was reported as asking: “Why so few spectators at Monza? During Friday’s qualifying I was disappointed looking at the stands.”
Apparently Domenicali, F1 chief, responded: “We are discussing with the organisers precisely to understand how to relaunch the Grand Prix. I find it hard to think of an F1 without Monza, but events are also business and there must be an economic return that justifies them.” In 2019 a general admission ticket was around €100 for the three-day event. Now your three-day enforced grandstand ticket would cost between €410 and €650 . Perhaps the fact the cheapest admission is over four times more expensive than the last visit is an even greater reason why the tifosi stayed away.
