There seems to be so much money spent in F1...the cost being almost crippling for many - so apart from the love of it - is there a business case?!! Do the teams win financially for winning a race? What's the return?

Totally agree and the prize money would never bank role a Formula 1 team. How much money does an F1 tema now have to put up front to actually compete for a season?That was just an answer to the point about being paid for wins.
the big teams have some finance input (several hundre million) from sponsor etc.
the £30m suggestion for the FIA, is based on an amount currently available to teams from the FOM tv revenue.
I am sure they will get more out of FOM if a budget cap was brought in. FOM earns around £750m a year. So they could easily get a 26 car grid for a £50m cap.

I was listening very hard to what eccles cake was saying and I was thinking he does not want to persue this?They reckon you need £80m. I think torro rosso, and Williams will be operating under that. Honda stopped funding Brawn at end of March, so it could be operating under that by the end of the year.
£30m will dumb the teams and the show down. Thats what Mad Max wants. Sooner he leaves the better. I mean, look at the shambles this year. I understand the response to the McLaren Lie-GATE issue, but who allowed the stewards to make a decision when they had no consulted the team radios, that they had access to?
We all make mistakes so my view is to draw a line under that now and move on. Imagine Max saying that? neither can I!
