Would the MLB commit publicly to maintaining/cosseting the Yankees? This is ridiculous if you step back a bit.

Ferrari's entire R&D budget and the lion's share of their marketing is F1 you have to remember Ferrari is a racing team first and a manufacturer second. Hence "race it on Sunday sell it on Monday"

But they don't really race any of their street cars, like Porsche does.

Unfortunately; love to see them get back into Le Mans racing and a concerted factory gt2/3 effort.

No surprise at all. Bernie has been backing Ferrari and doing whatever he can to help them for a long time now. Ferrari is clearly greedy though. They tried the same "we don't like the rules because we're not winning" thing a while back when they threatened to bow out of F1 and Bernie bent over backwards to keep them on the grid in the form of an extra $80M that is gifted to them whenever they win the WCC. It's rubbish.
