(Latest news on Bianchi, by the way:
Jules Bianchi Health Update: F1 Marussia Racer Still in a Coma, No Certainty if He's Going to Wake Up or Not, According to Jules' Father, Philippe Bianchi. But he did have this to say about his son:
"I think he will, as he has not fought with us this long for nothing.")
Well, me neither Stealth... that's not what I found entertaining about '14 at all!

Bianchi is an utter tragedy. I assumed no news meant this.

Numbers have been way off in Europe as well. Whether or not it's the bad economies around the world or just being bored of the sport is a different debate.
Interesting. Here's some contrasting data for the US market: http://www.formula1blog.com/f1-news/...h-93-increase/

I have heard the same about race attendance though. Could be down economies, could be the sound problem.

Austin attendance is still obviously strong. Down some from inaugural shouldn't be surprising. Plus didn't it go head to head with about 1/2 dozen events that day in TX last year?
