Typical USA bollox. Just because itโ€™s in the USA it must be massive. No.

The number of fans of US sports outside of the US is not even a statistical rounding error. Your sports are not global - they are village sports for village idiots.

The IPL is bigger than baseball. Association Football bigger than the NFL. I bet Rugby Football is too. Because cricket, football - both codes; are international. The world champions can come from anywhere in the world. NFL, baseball, basketball ball : one country.

The biggest stadium in the world is in North Korea. Does that make sports there the best in the world?

F1 is the pinnacle. Indy/Nascar is where the failed F1 drivers go. With the exception of Lance Stroll, you have the best drivers in the world on merit. 1.8 seconds to change 4 tyres; 3 seconds is considered slow. The front jack costs โ‚ฌ250,000 and saves around 2 tenths of a second. US$10,000,000 to go a tenth quicker. Each car a feat of engineering and excellence.

Once again we have US people completely forgetting that that 7.7 billion people donโ€™t live there and can not give a single fucking iota of fucks what happens there.

The NFL, NBA and MLB are the top three leagues in the world when it comes to revenue though. So they got that going for them. Premier League doesnโ€™t even come close. Remember Americans like to measure everything in money. Like how they think Germany is as poor as Mississippi because they have similar GDP per capita.

Meh, the 500 might not be relevant to the wider international audiences but to motorsports people it is. There is a reason why in the F1 Monaco post-race press conference the drivers were like "lets cut this short, we want to watch the race".

It is weird that F1 would put the Canadian GP in direct conflict with the 500.
