When they bought the series in 2011 we had more entries, events in Abu Dhabi & Bahrain as well as NZ, plus a new 5-year deal with Texas was freshly signed, the Sydney 500 was still being bandied as the greatest event ever in after two runnings and three years still to go on that contract, and they were in the middle of the mega-buck 6-year TV deal with Channel 7 that had started in 2007.

Now we have less cars, only NZ left as an overseas event at the moment, no more major Sydney event, a big TV deal going in its favour but it delivers less FTA content
