BMW Quits F1

I wonder if there is even a future for F1?

Can you blame them? F1 is just a stupid waste of money these days.

If they spent only a fraction of that budget on sports car racing - ALMS etc - they could dominate.

Look at Porsche. They produce about 250 race cars per year. And they actually make money on every one they sell!

I agree Peter.

They need to focus on sports car racing which is much more closely connected to their customers. They should be in ALMS in a bigger way but also should be supporting Speed World Challenge more meaningfully. It would indeed be a fraction of the F1 budget.
