Pretty much this. Not much point pontificating about which cause is more noble because all that matters is the numbers. F1 has the exposure that all other motorsport (bar NASCAR?) don't.

Actually no scrap that nonsense - it's clearly the swag that's swinging the money towards Caterham ('s creditors). If only Brabham had thought of making branded lanyards...

Oh, and the update: over £500,000 from ~1500 donors.
