1. Formula 1 teams have hundreds of millions of dollars for their budgets, motogp is no where near that. 2. See Romain Grosjean and tell me they’re over paid
MotoGP is bush league up against F1. Consider Austin, which is F1's biggest event, they sold out the facility w/ 440,000 tickets @ $300+ a piece. MotoGP tickets are still $99 for the weekend and they can't even sell 1/3 the tickets. That's $132 million vs $15 million in just ticket revenue. F1 is just a much bigger show.
Just announced that USGP tickets are going on sale soon. $475 for GA 3 Day. That definitely prices me out.
Haven't you seen the previous interview they did about Gordon Murray? Not surprised that they don't care to mention him.
