Hi.
Just so those Europeans can stay in bed a bit longer the races are timed in such a way that a simple rain delay makes it impossible to continue because it gets too dark!
So for those European TV watchers' convenience, thousands of locals pay VERY high prices for tickets only to see 30% of a race and a 40-minute "standing party" (those on the rest of the track saw an empty track for 40 minutes!)
I could imagine that next year those great stands will be empty.
Does F1 actually still care for the people who come to the races, or is it only about television now? Me being in Bangkok, Malaysia and Singapore are the only places where i *could* actually afford to watch a race live..... lucky i didn't waste my money on this farce.
Best regards....
