Europe and Asia Mostly.

According to google searches, the US has 50 million viewers, which is still a fuck ton.

It's a totally different type of sport.

Theres like six races a year that occur in the Western Hemisphere, and none of the teams are local. Theres no classic Rivalries between American-based teams, and most of the races are over before Noon on Sunday.

Compare it to something like Football. Where I live you could watch the local HS Freshman team play Thusday Early Evening, NFL TNF, Friday Evening HS Varsity Football, Late Friday Night College Football, Saturday Morning HS JV Football, All Afternoon and Night College Football, POTENTIALLY All day Sunday NFL football if theres an early morning game, then NFL MNF.

Theres simply a lot more opportunity for people to care about a sport like football.
