The distribution of money in Formula 1: it is the most secret key in the history of the sport. Especially since 25 percent of the $1.157 billion paid out will be deducted first for the six world champion teams (including, of course, Williams and Alpine and Renault). Before the rest is divided among the ten teams.
2.57 billion in sales
For Alfa-Sauber, the sporting rise from 9th to 6th place in the World Championship and the increase in Formula 1 revenues from USD 2.13 to USD 2.57 billion have really paid off – with USD 26 million more on the bill.
If you take a closer look at the number box, you can imagine that most of the ten teams are going up against an eleventh member of the club. And the entrance fee of $ 200 million (which will be divided among the ten teams) has long since doubled.
Only beginners with 700 million?
A team boss told Blick in the paddock on Thursday: “Fortunately, Formula 1 has become big business. Those who want to jump on the bandwagon with their own team must put 700 million in the cash register as an entrance fee!”
Now even the Andretti clan stops laughing. The times of the freeriders have long since been handed out. It is uncanny how well Formula 1 has survived the pandemic years. Last year, more than 5.7 million spectators came to the 22 races. This time, 23 World Cup races are scheduled for the first time.
Injured pram wants to drive
Aston Martin-Mercedes provided the sporting news of the day: Lance Stroll (24) will try to participate in the first training session on Friday. “I feel fit,” says the Canadian, and you can only see a small bandage on his right hand.
What happened? strolling around. “When I was mountain biking I missed a gap in the terrain – and it happened. The pulse should be fine now.”
Brazilian Formula 2 champion Felipe Drugovich (22) completed the three-day testing in Bahrain for Aston Martin. His hopes of a GP debut have now been dashed.
