A Money Making Game

How much is it to participate in Formula One? I guess it will cost you hell lots of money. And if you cheat in this game, it will cost you a lot, too.

Official Formula One News
"McLaren have been excluded from the 2007 constructors’ championship and fined US$100 million following Thursday’s FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) hearing in Paris. "

100 million US dollars...........@@"

Questions: WMSC fined McLaren US$100 million, but how is WMSC going to use this big fat check? Where will this money be spent on by WMSC?

"Drivers Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton have not been penalized and are free to continue their fight for the drivers' title."

Ah Ha~ here we go~! At the end, it is not about the athletic discipline. It's all about money making!!! To be fair, I would say that drivers should be suspended for the entire season. However, if these two drivers, currently ranked in 1st and 2nd, are out of the game this year, F1 will be seriously boring to be watched. Without any surprise, McLaren decided to stay in the game even though they are fined for 100 mils. Running a F1 team apparently can make more than 100 millions; I meant a lot more!! 100 million US dollars, a big deal to me; a small potato for F1 teams.
