Tickets should be affordable
by Siddharth Reddy on Oct 23, 2007 12:21 AM

F1 already has a decent audience in the middle class and above segments in India. Unless Force India or an Indian driver in F1 is successful, the popularity will largely remain the same.

Moreover, the tickets for Indian GP, if and when it takes, should be affordable. The average ticket price for F1 racing around the world is around more than Rs. 10000 for an average grandstand seat. For India, the tickets should be priced keeping the average Indian's earning power in mind.

F1 cant overtake cricket. If it has to happen, then each indian wud have to get a ferrari at his home, to practice.

It can never beat other sports!

Formula races are hyper expensive.....and cannot be popular with the masses as cricket(can be played with a log of wood and a paper rolled into a ball), foot ball(even plastic bottle wd do..) volley ball ( a rural popular game)and many more....Mallya shld concentrate on developing grounds in villages for sports like volleyball and football..and not in sports like cricket or F1 where hardly 10 nations or teams compete. Sports authrotiy had failed to produce a quality football team over the years....no corporate like Zee wd venture out in having an IPL for football..REASON:NO MONEY..And we blow trumpets over INDIA SHINING!!!

Mallya's crazy

Mally's nuts. How can F1 - an ultra-exclusive sport which only the rich can particpate in replace a sport which any one can play? The best bet to replace cricket in India is football.

by Dileep on Oct 22, 2007 08:45 PM

I love both F1 and cricket. Why sould one be an alternative to the otheras the title says? Why can't both sports co exist?
