Nice headline, and the expected responses, but think of it like this guys, £100 mil divided by six teams over six years, it's a drop in the ocean, pretty sure Silverstone, is the only F1 track funded by the BRDC, with no Gov't funding, whereas every other country does have Gov't funding for what it brings to the country, and think of all the jobs, i.e. taxes this means, having GB as the main home of auto sport technology and development is worth a few quid IMO, other issues are much bigger things, which I don't want to engage in,

Totally get where you are coming from fog but when you have the might of Merc and Renault (as a whole) taking advantage of these loopholes all while turning mega profits.......cant blame them, but its taking the piss no matter which way you look at it.
"Last year we discovered that Formula 1 paid a meagre £5.2 million in corporation tax on a massive £372.3 million profit in 2015," says Hodge. "Now we find out that F1 teams are receiving more than £100 million in public money."

Yeah... it doesn't look good. What is worse is that apparently F1 teams were "encouraged" to apply and take advantage of the scheme. Don't want to get party political, but the Tories are a bunch of complete fuck nuggets.

From what I can see they are all the same fog, the higher up the "food chain" the more tax cons/perks/breaks
