actually, it is.

This what happens when you have jacked up the price of doing business, and have a major market-related downturn happen right behind it. It has become harder to justify such things in the face of present times, and Bernie isn't doing anything to help the long-term financial issues that a few more of these races, most that are reliant upon both state and financial industry backing, would later experience.

A step towards reducing the sanctioning fees and other costs would go a long way towards preserving the sport without losing the grandness of it. Only someone whom is too selfish and short-sighted would make statements signaling that they aren't willing to take the long-term approach in insuring that all venues have a better chance of sustained return.

yep

not having a french GP seems absolutely inconceivable to me.
Seems like the the 5 races that should always be on the F1 calender are the Italian, British, German and French and Japanese GP.

One's gone now, the British was in doubt until Bernie squeezed out millions from Donington park.

You watch in another few years the german and Japanese GP might come under pressure, especially with the economic crisis, several enterprises might not choose to subsidize these revenue loss leader at the current rates.

F1 might find themselves loosing out to the likes of the sports car series or an expanded/global DTM style series in the near future to fill the gaping void filled by Bernie's greed.

its the arrogance of self adulation and false might in the light of crumbling surroundings that took Rome down. And f1 is doing their best to go down that path.
