Interesting. Not sure what any implications are with the cost cap as to how much it benefits them there but certainly from a commercial point of view would be super useful.

Reynolds and McElhenney slowly working on their Sports Empire.

I mean... it's entertaining, but I don't really understand the why, except if they really just enjoy it, and have enough money to burn it on Football and F1.

Or are they Advertising themselves? Have Actors become reliant on advertising like corporations?

Maybe they just legitimately think it's a good investment? I probably wouldn't, but neither am I rich πŸ˜‚

I always thought F1 only makes sense as advertising for the sponsors/manufacturers

It seems to be working out for Toto Wolff at least!

So you’re telling me there’s hope for an It’s Always Sunny and F1 crossover episode?

Welcome to Alpineham. I'd watch that.
