It does explain the high ticket prices initially, and the desperate prices later on.
As you say bert, a totally unresearched and very poorly thought out idea.
You would think a company with decades of experience in events would know that...

Indeed. He may not have wanted racing fans but he needs them. To entice families etc the sport needs to build, he can't turn it into a sensation over night.
