From my memory of merchandise prices when we attended the Austin race, that $200 of F1 scrip might buy a hat and a couple of t-shirts. So let’s say a person took that low ball voucher offer, bought the hat and t-shirts… but then returned the items for a refund. Would they receive US $ or just another F1 funny money credit?

When Vegas was first announced, the wife asked me if I was planning on us going. I told her that this would be worse on the wallet than Miami and probably not as good a race as Austin. I like going to Vegas, but I figured this would be a clown show, just meant for the super wealthy to rub elbows with each other. It appears I was mostly right. Sorry for the hardworking fans who got screwed over though.
