What contract is he talking about here now? Monza, Italy. He wants to double his billing to the track ownders from 12 to 22 million Euros. The ability to fund this is coming from the government and their Parliament. So will it be approved? Only if Parliament approves it. That's the only way Monza can come up with the funds to pay Bernie.
and that's the only track for F1 in italy. So what would that mean to the vast numbers of Italian race fans? What would that mean to Ferrari?

Well that ruined my morning. Monza is one of maybe four or five tracks I still care about in F1. F1 isn't F1 without a Monza race, it has to be on the calendar. I still miss Imola greatly, I love that track.
