Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali is on a mission to expand the company’s global footprint and grow its US audience — and that means spotlighting the “protagonists” of the sport.”They are our jewel, our stars,” Domenicali said about F1 drivers at a press roundtable on Monday.Unlike in sports like football or baseball, he says it can be a challenge to make F1 drivers “the face” of the sport when they’re not as physically visible during races.
