I think it's in the way the prize fund is advertised. It does say it was designed to help them compete in CCWS but it does not say it must be used that way, but it's nit-picking a bit to be fair. And I agree that nothing has changed.
But it's the reality that a ride in CCWS is costing something like $5million which makes the prize money practically dependent on getting other sponsorship. I realise I'm stating the obvious here but some people seem to be struggling with it.
The "prize" was nothing more than the opportunity to be given an extra $2m if you can raise the rest, and maybe there is or isn't a portion of the $2m given as cash. Still not much of a prize in my book. Can understand the series' rationale for doing it though.
