No point attracting young generation to F1 says Ecclestone > F1 News > Grandprix.com
I know this guy has been shooting off his mouth for years but the older he gets the more I struggle to figure him out. If CVC truly wants to go public I can't understand why they would ignore the youth market. Are they unconcerned with growth? What say ye? Is this guy finally beyond the pale? |
So what's wrong with that, he told the truth.
The youth are not their target market. They do not but Rolex's or Ferraris or Mercedes.
Older wealthy males buy that stuff and THEY are the market.
Of course the little snots seem to drink that red bull crap by the gallon so maybe I'm wrong ....
