Yes, but who is to blame ? I suggest the customer - most of whom now rail at paying anything for motorsport news (or Motorsport News ) , even at little more than the price of a coffee from Costa (remember those? we had cafes in olden times).
Ever since F1 and motorsport meant the same thing for many , the magazine lost readers like me who are interested in the whole sport, from club racing and speed events up to F1 . Far fewer people get off their lazy backsides and watch anything live - and exist on the fatty diet of F1 and F1 alone .
Autosport only reflects that - where more prominence is given to a tweet from Lewis , or the demise of a sponsor , than the whole previous weekend's racing here , excepting only Goodwood . Just look at the F 1 forum - page after bloody page about (yawn ) Rich Energy and compare and contrast with national racing content
