    Inventing Anna Delvey's sad trombone... not VIP enough! not a spectacle!

    "I realise not everyone is sympathetic to VIPs who had a bad experience
    in Miami - but consider that if a CEO or billionaire who could
    potentially sponsor your favourite team or driver went away thinking
    "**** Formula 1" then everybody loses..."

    "@realsimonsays Poor catering, bad service, no shuttles, car parks miles
    away, traffic jams to get out of them. Things you might find annoying if
    you or your host had paid $13,000 for your ticket..."

    On the contrary the less money there is in F1 the better it could
    become.

    Money has not improved F1; it has been a barrier.

    No argument there. Though that is the argument being made.

    For starters, money forced out privateers, who provided diversity and contributed to 'the spectacle.'
