How sorry do I feel for Sutil and Force India?! What a nightmare.

well that cost some money for the teams today then.

Wicked race, really enjoyed watching the cars in the wet. Was Alonso on a mission to be a nob? Feel for Sutil after being hit by a ferrari missle up the arse though.

You think 10K for a nose cone is expensive... have you seen the latest license costs?

Check this out taken from windingroad.com

"Last season the superlicense cost a basic fee of around $2,550, with about $674 added on for each championship point scored; a drop in the bucket when compared with the wealth of the average F1 driver. This season however, the FIA has raised the basic fee to just under $15,000, with a whopping $3,000 or so added for each point scored.

At that rate, last year’s world champion Kimi Raikkonen would owe a hefty fee of around $340,000 just for the right to drive his F1 ride. While even that high number represents a small percentage of Kimi’s income, it will certainly add up quickly in the FIA coffers."

So the better you do, the more is costs!

Yes but considering prize money as well as salary i think the drivers are still absolutly rolling in it

Edit to say and advertisement deals!
