Q: I heard they're planning on a drivers' strike for silverstone, they're still gonna race but they're gonna do something else in order to protest because of the drivers' license cost. I was wondering how much does Vettel make and how much would he have to pay? Who could be the lowest payed driver that is still in the points? According to Alonso some drivers have to pay more depending of how many points they make, I wonder how many euro/pounds per point are they paying. He says it's not a problem for him but for other drivers who are getting into the points it is. Oh Val that's exactly what I needed! Ok so apparently it is 22 000 euro for Vettel and for Alonso 228 000 euro. Kimi 230 000. lol rosbif! I wonder what would have been their facial expression if they had told them that they had to pay like 15 million pounds... Julian you actually answered the title question correctly. Can I declare a tie? It's not fair Y!A... we need a tie button. correction I meant 15 thousand pounds...
A: http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080513104437AAZTfUg this question was asked about a month or so ago. check the link inside the Q, it makes interesting reading. Some of the drivers for the smaller teams only get a seat because of sponsors they bring. Not all F1 drivers are paid huge wages. Max and co should have taken that into consideration when they put the super licences up the way they did.
