Kev, sit down and stfu, you are yelling at the clouds again

iirc, tavo hellmund held rights to both the f1 and motogp events. when tavo's lawsuit with cota (for them forcing him out of the austin f1 race) was settled, tavo reportedly transferred the rights for the motogp race to schwantz.

from kevin's perspective, he isn't "yelling at clouds" at all.

to anybody that followed the tavo/cota issue (the track first tried to renegotiate directly with formula one management but were referred back to contract-holder tavo, then withheld the $25MM sanctioning fee until f1 cancelled tavo's contract, then subsequently renegotiated a deal w/ f1 directly), kevin's position doesn't seem that far-fetched.

this is starting to seem like a pattern for the track-owners.

unless he can show data/conversations where he has been trying to do exactly as DORNA required and getting a lack of response/resistance from COTA...that kind of documentation ( like EMails and certified mail ) does in fact carry weight in a court of law!

He has to prove that COTA actually gave him the rights to promote the race. From what we have read so far 3four was saying that they got the rights from DORNA, which leads me to believe that they never received anything from either.

Does it make economic and logistical sense to come here twice?
