Does anybody feel that F1 tickets are still relatively cheaper than the most expensive tickets to the EPL, or the golf tournaments or tennis tournaments?

 

The fact that tickets for EPL matches are still being sold out while there is a gradual decline for F1 grandstand tickets says a lot.

No, not really? A Friday ticket at Silverstone still costs you more than most match day tickets at any EPL stadium. A centre court ticket on finals day costs about as much as a general admit race day ticket for Silverstone. And championship day tickets for the Open are, again, cheaper than a Friday ticket at Silverstone. And that's not considering that you can get a general admit ticket for Wimbledon for £25 on the busiest days, a practice day at the Open for £10 and you can probably send an adult and child to watch a bottom half EPL match for less than £40.

The costs to watch a Grand Prix is pretty ridiculous for the casual working class man, don't they realise that lowering the costs drastically will help bring in much bigger crowds which in turn would bring a bigger profit??

Michael Schumacher was even mentioned on the Simpsons. I'm not absolutely sure if it was in the US version or just in the German version though.

Al Unser Jr got a mention in the English version:
