Fuck FIFA and their boot licking, corrupt bullshit. Somehow I think they’ve managed to be more corrupt than any of the US based sporting organizations.
Liberty Media owns Formula One Management (FOM), the company responsible for the production of F1 as a piece of media, while the International Automobile Federation (FIA) is responsible for the rule formula itself, the stewards, marshalls, race director, etc.
So when the person said, “no one outside of the US has heard of either” they were wrong. Liberty Media certainly isn’t as well-known a name as Formula 1, but it owns Formula 1.
I’m not familiar with the corruption of Indy 500 and I hadn’t heard of Liberty Media until reading this comment chain. Is Liberty Media a US based org or does F1 just have some events in the US?

FIFA is up there as one of the most corrupt organizations out there. There’s not a US sporting org that even comes close.
Cheerleading might come close.
Bunch of pedos
Its also very dangerous and they’ve avoided being labeled a “sport” to avoid certain regulations. According to this article it accounts for over 50% of catastrophic injuries in female athletes - https://www.sportsmed.org/membership/sports-medicine-update/winter-2025/flips-falls-and-fractures-the-reality-of-cheerleading-injuries
It may have gotten better in recent years, it’s been a while since I read up on the subject.
And the Olympics.
Good point. Cheerleading and gymnastics, although idk if that’s mainly a US problem.
LOL. Liberty Media, Indy 500…
No one outside of USA has heard of either. FIFA is a global organisation.
No one outside the USA has heard of Formula 1? Ok.
Indy 500 has nothing to do with Formula 1. Different cars, different rules, different drivers, etc.

And Formula one is massively corrupt. F1 races are also hotbeds of human trafficking.
There may be some races, but ladies, that’s not why your husband is there.
IndyCar is run by a few billionaires who all support MAGA, and your government spends hundreds of millions of your taxpayer dollars supporting teams.
Roger Penske getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom for no reason.
According to some Russian propaganda conspiracy forum?
Sure, nobody who goes to a race goes to see cars drive quickly…
Maybe if your husband is a millionaire. The formula fans I personally know, regardless of gender, like fast cars not trafficked humans.
He’s a sleb, Trump loves 'em.
Who said F1 had anything to do with indycar? Fucking read?
Indycar is broadcast in 200 countries. It’s just another big corrupt sport.

Forget about the corruption. Who wants to watch a bunch of guys in Nomex drive in circles for extended periods?
They have always been a corrupt to the bone org.
are they licking their own boots?
or just cleaning them as usual
