I started getting into F1 a bit more in the past couple of years.

I remember thinking it might be a cool idea to try and go along to a race at Silverstone. Seemed like it would be a good day out.

Took one look at the prices and resigned myself to probably never going to an F1 race in my life, unless I suddenly come into vast amounts.of sustained wealth.

This will be my first ever year attending a race (Las Vegas) and it was admittedly only possible due to a decent disposable income that happened to line up. I can imagine how many people want to attend but can’t because their favorite track is impossibly expensive or the more “affordable” tickets being out of travel distance.

Both is true.

There verstappen dominance has lowered the relative value of the seats, but the prices haven’t changed.

Also, capitalists are fucking ghouls, feasting on the corpse of anything that might bring anyone joy.
