Some comments above sound like Dragons Den. TV has , with its vast advertising revenue , become the tail that is waving the F1 dog . Fewer fans ? Good - most of them have probably never seen motor racing live and I wouldn't mourn their loss. But smaller budgets you say ? Good , say I . When a front wing costs 100 grand something is very wrong with the sport....For reference it's worth noting that the inflation adjusted price of an off the shelf DFV from 1968 is only 30 grand more than the wing - and the DFV sounds a damn sight better than today's insanely complex engines. Sorry , 'power units '....
