I don't know, but someone must.... If 36,000 to 46,000 is roughly Cardiff, it just won't work.. That's about the tops with the stand on bend 3-4. To make the money they would have to do a pay-as-you-view special. I would accept that even though I BT TV subscriber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say do away with Cardiff they could have both.If they could fit 9,000 in that would top Prague by 1,500 spectators.There are also a few Gp circuits that only have 10-15,00 spectator capacity.

I didn't mean instead of Cardiff either! But why would 36,000 to 46,000 go to Cardiff, and only around 9,000 or less to Belle Vue, sure, it would sell out, but would it make any money? Ticket prices would have to increase tremendously to make it viable, plus as "OFF" said, BT would have to make it a PPV event to improve revenue......

Do they not then make money from Prague and Hallstavik which only hold 7,500 and 10,000 respectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILIPRISING Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 THE cost of staging a meeting at an established venue with a permanent track is massively cheaper than at the Principality for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
