The formula 1 race is the most prestigious motor-racing competition on the planet. Every season, from March to December, 10 F1 teams participate in races across the world. The 2022 season features 22 “Grand Prix” weekends on five continents. Each involves three days of events:
practice sessions on Friday and Saturday, qualifying sessions or short-sprint qualifying races to determine starting positions on Saturday, and the actual race on Sunday. Close to half a billion viewers tune in to F1’s television coverage throughout the season and the action on the ground can attract as many as 400,000 live spectators.
The tickets were originally a thousand dollars per person but prices dropped because they couldn’t sell enough tickets. Some people don’t think that it shouldnt stay longer because it comes back in another 9 years. Thomas does think the price is too high which is why he is going to watch it online.
It is incredibly hard to win a Formula One race even once. The sport is often decided by margins measured in thousandths of seconds. Everything—from the engineering of the car in the factory to the multitude of decisions made on the track during a race —needs to come together in order to produce a victory.
