USA = fastest growing market

China = biggest untapped market

I understand that F1 is a spectacle instead of a sport. Makes sense. I'll get by with the race highlights on youtube

That will definitely make China a hub of F1 fandom, just like having all these races in the Middle East has done. /s

Hmmmm I feel like ChangLi Racing might have a hard time hanging out at the big boys table.

But on the contrary the likes of Dongfeng have a lot of money to throw around, and if Chinese companies are good at one thing, its catching up to Western competitors at lightning speed.
