Genuinely, I thought the whole “stres circuit” thing was just paranoia-induced delusion, you know? Like there’s no way that after sitting in front of investors at the start of the merger and having Carmelo Ezpeleta basically imply the street track weren’t going anywhere cause know THEY ARE RED (denger ) and everyone media/teams assuring us there was nothing to worry about because it’s OBVIOUSLY too dangerous to mess with something like that that they wouldn’t actually do it. And yet here comes Liberty Media like “wanna see how stupidly greedy we can be?” as if rider safety, race quality literal human lives are just minor inconveniences+ HOW do you replace one of the most beloved races on the MotoGP calendar track loved by both new fans and people who’ve been watching for decades with a random brand-new circuit that has zero history, zero proven racing, and a very real chance of either not happening at all or being so sanitized for safety that the race is boring anyway? like wow, groundbreaking marketing strategy: alienate fans, endanger riders, and downgrade the show yup that’s who you grow your audience
