A reminder that F1 is a sport by the bourgeoisie for the bourgeoisie. curry-space

I wonder if any of these ghouls actually follows the races and geeks out over the car specs like an otaku would. My money they're just posers there for the clout.

They're in there. 1 in 1000 ultra rich car guys will actually be really into the cars themselves rather than the status symbol.

Some that come to mind are the guys that will endlessly restore, race, crash, repeat vintage racecars. They'll get in turn-of-the-century deathtraps, slam into a wall, and basically go "ah i guess we're restorin' again" in a crossover episode of the ship of thesius and Sisyphus.

The only rich guys I sorta respect are the kind that will put themselves into harms way for their interests.

We need more of those rich eccentrics that tried to invent powered flight and kept killing themselves by gently crashing gliders with eight vertically stacked wings

I can't even hate on the dumb sub billionaire. You know elon will never get in one of his own rockets.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

He gets credit for taking a few billionaires to Davie Jones' locker, too

Steamed Buns

Is that an upstate New York recipe?

Caviar in the empanadas

[–] [email protected] 51 points 3 months ago

I'm having trouble processing this, that's over $100 American for anything?

From a Bluesky thread

“What’s the difference between F1 and Indycar?”

“Well, for starters Roger Penske would be tarred and feathered if he tried to charge you a c-note for a bowl of BBQ pork nachos.”

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago

The difference is that F1 wasn’t killed by one failson.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 3 months ago

Someone tell me that those numbers are missing a decimal point somewhere before I go absolutely fucking insane oh-shit

where's a hurricane when you need one

Am I understanding right that a "fruit refresher" is just a bowl of fruit?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago

Looks like fruit over coconut granata. Marginally fancier than a fruit salad lol.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Add 1oz Caviar* $400

Edit: To be clear, this is the bourg-box not the regular menu. You can probably get $50 nachos in the seats that cost as much as the caviar add-on.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 months ago

this is why you need to work overtime for minimum wage while paying $2000/month in rent, otherwise the CEOs and landlords wouldn't be able to afford their treats!

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 months ago

grand prix. big price

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I stg pre-covid weekend tickets used to cost a bit more than that. Wtf happened

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 months ago

Let me guess. No outside food allowed...

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago

well thank god at least the nachos are reasonable

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

Who do I run up to and scream in their face "You're a grand pricks"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

Chicken wings? Those better be like, extinct Moa wings they cloned explicitly to make wings with for a price like that.

It has crudité, not sliced vegetables, so it costs more.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

That seems fair. The difference between crudité and mere sliced vegetables should be about 100 bucks.

Death to F1 attendees and functionaries

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago
