NASCAR, the most popular racing series in the U.S., has very little in common with the most popular racing series on the planet, Formula 1. NASCAR circuits are typically oval, while F1 circuits are road courses featuring a combination of twisty bits, fast turns, and long straights followed by heavy braking zones. F1 circuits include purpose built race tracks and converted street circuits......
Good article.One point regarding team revenue is prize money.Points are awarded to the race winner and to all first ten places on a sliding scale.
There are two separate championships in F1.The F1 World drivers championship which is won by an idividual driver who collects the most points duing the season.
The Formula One World Constructors Championship is won by the team which collects the most points during season.
The teams get paid prize money of several millions of dollars for WCC points.

Both race schemes are great. Could you imagine NASCAR having a circuit with lots of twists and turns?

When it comes to cars, I'd go wild for an oval or a multi-turn track. Both race schemes seem to have something in common - great cars.
