I don't get it. Webber and Porsche brought a lot of publicity to the series over the last year and then the WEC goes and does this...
How many viewers were we seeing on the Dailymotion streams last year? I remember it being between 5k-10k a race. If half of the 10k viewers actually pay the 5 euros (its actually 4,49) they get 25k euros at the most. A sponsor could take care of that easily. And whatever they get in streaming revenue they could lose in sponsor revenue ten fold.
