Tampere Gp

[Mark 1,497]

Where is the crowd?

 

It's a tradition in Finland for the crowd to wear fancy dress. They come as red seats.

A bonus for those of us watching Polish coverage is we have the delectable Daria in the studio.

If that's the case, there can't be much more than 1500 there then.

16,800

Good guess.on my part. So we have around 5-6000 ? The Warsaw effect !!!!

Think the crowd was bigger at Somerset last night!

Can somebody explain to me why this meeting is being held here? Temporary track in front of a low crowd

 

Is there any reason this couldn't be at a regular track in Finland or somewhere else for that matter

I doubt any of the regular tracks in Finland are capable of handling a GP.

Because the rights holders have delusions of grandeur and think they can rival Formula 1.

What capability would they lack, that this place has?

A stand ?

I asked because my thinking was that the whole idea was big crowds so we put up with the temporary tracks, seeing the crowd here would it not be better perhaps to concentrate on the the racing with a decent track

[Grand Central 2,654]

A stand ?

 

For what purpose?

It seems a little indulgent for this few people.

Or are empty seats an FIM requirement?

 

A small temporary one would surely be more than sufficient.

Was there an official announcement for the abandonment of the last GP? Because if it was about the track, this track seems far more challenging than last month!

I think F1 has more passing than this !
