F1 TV Numbers Drop...



In case Y'all hadn't heard, Formula 1 television viewing numbers dropped significantly last year with the easy reason being: BLAME SEBASTIAN! As its true that Seb' Vettel's utter domination of the season, including reeling off  a record nine in-a-row victories at the end of the year were a major turnoff, but instead, let's take notice that arguably F1's largest market Britain was forced to switchover to PAY TV which surely cost it viewers - not to mention the large loss in France due to the switch over to the PAY wall at Canal TV... While China accounts for probably the largest viewership loss  - albeit Mr. Bernard Ecclestone probably doesn't give  a Monkey's ARSE since he's getting his cut directly from the lucrative TV networks instead!
