Couple of points from a Finn.

Oh it does have plenty, though it is still very much a TV sport. Outside of its home country it has become very popular in China that has given the sport 300 million worldwide audience and increased the prize pools 10% annually for almost a decade now.

It looked like quite straightforward indeed.

Gun law and actually enforcing it are two different things.

When Nokia dominated the phone and smartphone market from 1998 to 2009 they had the 8xxx lineup and Vertu phones. 8xxx phones were around+800 to 2000 dollars. Vertu’s were 5000 to 100,000 dollars.

It might not be sold in US at all. Western Europe has more Mercedes models, let alone trim options and wider commercial side with trucks and vans (including special fitted ambulance, police etc).

Should it be relatable to the generic public? There are hundreds of racing series out there that are much more down to earth, if one wants that. There are also stuff like Le Mans Prototypes that are just celebration of engineering. TV viewers wise F1 has always been the number one motorsport out there.

Big youtubers have had this honed down for a decade. Of course there will always be young newcomers that don’t know what they are doing, but there is loads of material on how to fill your taxes as a youtuber.
