It's only the die hard fans that put up with it tbf and they'll soon go once their club closes, Can tell that by looking at the age demographic at a meeting streamed on BSN or a live TV meeting on Eurosport (Not being disrespectful), Only reason why some young kids go is because the parents can't leave them at home and they're not interested in watching the racing.
I just can't see the sport attracting new fans if we've got rules that are an embarrassment to the sport to a point where every year they shoot themselves in the foot.
The rules don't even make our sport sound semi-professional anymore let alone professional.
