Dear Mr. Mallya, I appreciate your trick to promote a sport in the country and your vision. But let me defer from you, as on today, saying that F1 WILL NOT BE EVEN CLOSER TO BECOME AN ALTERNATIVE TO CRICKET IN INDIA. An alternative sport can be there only if equal number of people get INVOLVED. Unlike Cricket, F1 is HUGELY EXPENSIVE game and people can only watch. Are you talking about a single tarck in the country, when we have close to 50 cricket venues spread across the country. Also, let our environ expert clear the trial F1 at New Delhi. Its rich man's sport, and we do not fuel enouugh to have lights in our houses today. People would appreacite you more if you solve such issues, rather than supporting a cause of a few ones.

The electricity that YOU use to power your computer and internet access can also power a few small homes. Why dont YOU stop using your computer and other amenities for the sake of the common man??

Cricket also has become a rich man's sport...what with endorsements....match-fixing...etc. etc.
...the cricket that u see on the roads and maidans is the real cricket!...and not the one where crores are made by BCCI and the players...and the spectators have to go without decent amenities in the best of stadiums!
