I guess it must be comforting to know that soon you'll be the richest dude in the cemetery.

Kraft? Nah, Mr. Ross seems better suited for the current trend:

Speaking of F1 & football, they could boost the attendance/tv ratings from both motor and ballsport fan bases by introducing Formula-Rugby. Just think of it, Hamilton and Rosburg have to complete passes to each other while driving so many laps and avoid being tackled - or smashed into more like - by Maldonaldo & Co.

Buying F1 is going a bit far

Yeah, but just think of all the new juicy conspiracy theories that could be launched; like a high ranking shareholder/official's family member being tied to funneling funds to ISIS or Al-Qaeda.

Meaning more F1 exposure to gather in more fans... uh for what motive, I dunno.

If this goes through, I wonder how long it will be when Las Vegas will start setting odds of when F1 will be finished and/or the emergence of a break-away series.
