Sports in general are a microcosm of society. You’re correct obviously. the well connected play by different sets of rules, the money is funneled upwards ever increasingly into fewer and fewer hands. Shadowy men out of the limelight institute rules or laws that ultimately protect their peers financial interests at the detriment to everyone else. The “testing” in racing, the obsurd way football is now officiated, more rules, more bureaucracy. All in the name of maintaining the status quo at the top while killing the game for the common patron. To my eye it corresponds pretty well with what is the world in 2018.
