F1® Arcade USA’s Post

A visit to F1 Arcade Boston is just one of the features in this week’s Sim Racing Roundup. If you can’t make it to Boston don’t worry, F1 Arcade is coming to Washington and Vegas next. I also have news on how Ferrari uses an AI driver in the sim, what it’s like to race against Max Verstappen on iRacing and looking at why you spin after touching the grass. All this and more in this week’s Sim Racing Roundup on Motorsport Prospects. It’s sim racing news for racers not gamers. #simracing #esports https://lnkd.in/eF3bpwnm

This is super helpful to "see" what is about to go down. Check out the POV video.

I am still digesting the coverage and implications of the rejected Andretti F1 bid (expect full coverage in Friday's Business of Motorsport column) but one quote that stuck out to me is from Mark Hughes in The Race. Discussing the potential legal implications of the decision, he feels that there could be some legal push-back and we know the law is trending against monopolistic behavior, even in sports. #sportslaw #motorsportlaw "It lists all the reasons why not, but the most crucial one is it does not see Andretti joining bringing a net financial benefit to F1. In other words, F1’s income would be divided among the teams by 11 rather than 10 without it attracting the additional income for F1 to compensate for the smaller share. It’s difficult to read this any way other way than F1 declaring itself a closed shop to anyone other than automotive manufacturers." https://lnkd.in/evu-QBuS

When discussing the "anti-dilution fee" that Liberty is imposing on new entrants to the F1 circus, the debate is currently around whether the $200M fee will be tripled to $600M as a more realistic figure due to F1's rise in popularity. As BlackBook Motorsport's analysis has pointed out, this could cause legal complications. #sportslaw #motorsportlaw "Plus, Liberty Media is a US-based company so it is subject to the Sherman Antitrust Law, which is designed to promote fair competition. The mooted US$600 million fee could be seen as an attempt to ringfence Formula One and, therefore, monopolise the sport." https://lnkd.in/ep58y85i

"What you see here is just the tip of the iceberg." While our core race team over a weekend consists of around 100 members trackside, so much more has happened behind the scenes to get our cars and team-mates race ready. Back in June, Toto took Sara Eisen and CNBC on a tour of our F1 garage, explaining all the processes that have to come together to make what you see at every event a reality.

Formula 1 is taking over Las Vegas this weekend - in a big way. The new Sphere, which cost over $3b to build and only opened 6 weeks ago, has been rented out by F1 for the week, meaning U2 have been given a week off during their 29 shows while in residency. Bet it didn't come cheap! Knowing the value of a property is key when you're looking to buy or sell (or rent it out to the biggest show on earth). Getting a Property Profile Report from ANZ is a great place to start. #anzbank #propertyprofilereport #homeloans #lasvegas #lasvegasGP #anzmobilelendingEssendon Get a property profile report here. https://lnkd.in/gA-HgzTF

This is a great analysis of what should happen if Liberty and FOM deny Andretti's F1 opportunity. Much of this I have mentioned before as the legal issue will be front and center if there are no clear reasons why the entry was denied. #sportslaw #motorsportlaw "What’s more, as FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem has explicitly said, there are also legal considerations. Motorsport's governing body has accepted Andretti so it is now down to F1 to make its choice. If it says no, that might potentially open it up anti-competition action." https://lnkd.in/gdmf6qBa
