It is simply amazing how many people know ZERO about F-1 finances, but are determined to comment anyway! The promoter pays F-1 an exhorbitant fee for the privilige of holding the race. PART of the ticket sales goes to the promoter, while ALL advertising signage revenue goes to Fi (Liberty Media) as does the TV

90 pounds per squre foot? That was a joke, right? More like 900Lbs per square foot, you left ourt a zero. And these bridghes are steel and concrete, and capable of handling one TON per square foot!!

I’ve been to MANY racetracks, as a correspondent/photographer for a major sports magazine. For example, Laguna Seca, The pedestrian bridghes were BUILT with solid wooden sides, fair enough...But NO TRACK blocks off the various fences...behind which, the paying spectators sit and watch. I also covered the old “IceBerg”

An interesting article, but one that seems to want to denigrate the new Ducati single...Silly really! Ducati has a well documented history of broad torque, and not just “Dyno-Chart” horsepower. And a history of delivering more than they promise. For those jalopnik readers not familiar with the two wheel world,

Gee, why don’t you point out those places??? I live in Los Angeles County, and there isn’t a SINGLE place to race. I have lived here for over 75 years and watched as “Lions” Drag strip was closed down and leased to some freaking Chinese shipping company...Who didn’t use it! Then, San Fernando Drag strip, then

WRONG, please see my other response! 

That is completely incorrect, no loan may obligate you to any interest other than for the length of time the loan is un-paid. I don’t know where you live, but that is the law both in the uSA and Canada

Sorry, but this was an opinionated garbage article. Safe driving and safe pedestrian and cycling behavior is NOT all that difficult. You come to a stop, look carefully and THEN proceedm pretty simply really! The fact that some people are jerk-offs does not mean we all need to be regulated down to the “Lowest Common

Rental Car companies are ALL borderline useless. Young kids with fresh college degrees being hired as managers, and they are arrogant as hell. Not a single clue as to what customer service is supposed to be. Landed at Washington-Dulles ( my first mistake!) for a medical conference, and when we went to pick up the car

I agree that they should have asked for or done an “Inspection” from the street, which would have discovered the problem... Then, given him fair and legal notice to remedy the situation, I.E. Clean it up, with a warning that unless he did so, that his coverage could be rescinded. That is the legal and appropriate way

They shut down streets from regular traffic BUT NOT the view! 

Yes, and if I were business owner being shaken down, my attornies would be filing an injunction against Liberty media for obstructiong a public view! 

I agree, it is very well executed, but, much like the Singer 911's WAAAAY too expensive, and effectively proof that there are too many people with more money than brains. The technology, as to both components and suspension are well known and duplicatable for far less if you are willing to put in even basic research

Exactly! 

Tough Crap! Pretty simple.... If the airlines want to make a decent and fair return they will stop their B/S Pricing games. This young man didn’t cost the airline a penny, and his Father should be in court as we speak, they cannot cancel you and force you to buy a ticket at an inflated price!!!

Sorry, it is Illegal to fly over inhabited airspace at ANYTHING less then 500 feet AGL, AND it is Illegal to fly over anyone else’s airspace below that altitude! Drones can only rise to 400Feet AGL, and NEVER over the property of another. So, it is BOTH creepy and Illegal!

Minimum altitude “Over inhabited property”, you can fly at 50 feet over the open ocean or over the desery, etc.

Yes, the airspace above your property is YOURS, up until you reach the level of “Class B”, Class D or Class C” airspace as set by the FAA. Otherwise, people flying drones could invade your privacy and video you and your Wife ( girlfriend, mistress, neice, whatever) hard at “Work”
