It's getting a little silly now.  We have classic race venues which are struggling to stay afloat, with new venues which close their doors after a handful of seasons.  Whether it's tracks or teams, I really hope that someone has a "moment of clarity" and sorts out these ongoing issues once and for all ... but not likely!!

All the best,
Cal :)

In fairness, the issue here appears to be with Spanish politics underwriting the circuit - F1 seems keen to continue and nobody in the article is citing the fee itself as a bone of contention (for a change!).
