Don’t know what “explains a lot” means. F1 is owned by an American company, Liberty media.
China, Abu Dahbi, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, pay huge $$$ to host a race- it’ll be comical to watch the DEI garbage take place at their races.
F1 has been an absolute bore for most of the past decade. The popularity has gone through the roof as everyone is now an F1 fan- but the racing sucks for the most part. It changed a little for the better this year but Indy car racing is better.
Only race I’ve ever been interested in is Monaco and that’s more about the track and scenery than anything else.....that and hoping Louis Hamilton finishes dead last every race.
It’s a global race, so lots of inherent diversity. There have been F1 races in 34 countries all over the world on every continent except Antarctica.
How much more diversity do they need
