   If anyone asks anything awkward you just give them a stock answer.

   Is there any part of the F1 experience we haven’t monitized? That’s it – an enjoyment surcharge

      Is there any part of the F1 experience we haven’t monitized?

      Maybe we can publish an F1 related image and charge people to come up with a witty headline!

   And then in the last lap of the last race we will declare Lando’s front wing illegal according to a new test we will devise! That should boost your viewing figures again!

   Greg Maffei : “F1 is worth $20 billion.”
   MBS : “Does that include the cost of replacing all the broken front wings ?”

   “Someone broke into my pits and stole a grid space or two
   The finger of suspicion points at Michael Andretti”

   ——————–
   PS. “Finger of suspicion” is an old song from 1954.
   It’s on YouTube with singer Dickie Valentine – in case anyone wants to hear the first two lines sung properly… :)

   GM: I know, it’s going great – the idea of allowing more than one team to be quick is making people think it’s a meritocracy.
   MBS: But who should win the championship? Heads or tails, call it.

    We own the shirt.
    You only temporarily own the commercial rights to the logo.

    And so, all we need to do is change the “Federation” from my organization’s name to “Entertainment”. History shows that works.

    Ben and Greg discussing the perfect size of “gray area” needed to steer just the right amount of controversy, to keep the sport in the news during the no-race weekends.

    Hi Keith, did you publish the winner of the last competition ‘Brown goes orange’? Can’t seem to find the result anywhere.

    Cheers, Simon.

       Not especially helpful, but I believe I do recall seeing the results for that one being posted. Hang on, let me try and be more helpful…

       yep.

       Funnily enough, there was one (one or two prior to that one) for which I couldn’t find the winners either.

       The link has incorporated into the final sentence. I’d forgotten how it worked. But as I am commenting again anyway, here is one that I hope is clearer
