cheapest price for the race in brazil 229 pounds? i guess that's a "fuck you" in the face of most brazilians


yes i was quite surprised,no stand for the less well off anywhere,we have quite a few brasilians here to tell us

maybe like britain the grand prix gets no government funding hence high prices to pay for everything and keep the race going

£299 converts to $728 in brazilian currency, which  is almost the minimum salary around here (R$ 750)

It's  a lot of money, but credit cards make it affordable even for the poorer.  But I doubt many people are willing to enter in debt just to watch a Race, instead they will buy a new TV to watch it.

For the Middle class however these prices are totally affordable.  And São Paulo where the race happens is a city composed by middle class workers.
