Formula One is the mainstream motorsport competition in the world and it has been for a few decades, although Formula 1 finding it hard to expand to next level but if we look at the last decades it has increased more than double since 2003 when the operating profit was $729million in 2003 which has steadily reached $1800 million in 2014.

Formula 1 revenue profit generation and distribution

Circuits as race promoters pay a certain race fee to commercial rights holders of F1, who also recieve money from highly lucarative TV rights deals plus sponsorships like F1 game and merchandise sales and than there is corporate hospitality packages which generate good money for F1 now once all these streams provide a inflow of cash to f1 commercial rights holder group than starts the outflow of cash which is divided into two parts. 1) prize money fund which is 50% of the total profit 2) the other 50% goes to formula 1 groups which is later divided into several parts.
