Just saw this stat saying F1 is the world's fastest growing sport. But that clearly cannot be true.
Sport grows by participation. F1 may be the world's fastest growing sport-related consumer market. But that's a market not a sport.

Words matter.

@ronanmcd I was walking thru a magazine section and saw that on a magazine cover. #F1 peaked in 2022 and is down and in some races down 100s of thousands of viewers.

@trendoid oh right, so it's not even necessarily true from a markets perspective as well as the obvious sports participation? Still, it can be a great spectacle. Often despite itself
