ISTANBUL: With all of the talk of cost-cutting in Formula One, somebody forgot to slash ticket prices for the Turkish Grand Prix.

F1 is in crisis over controversial team budget caps for 2010 yet empty stands were an unwanted backdrop at the Istanbul Park Circuit, with only 36,000 tickets sold for the three-day event.

"I am looking forward to Silverstone for many reasons because I think it will be a great atmosphere unlike here. There was no one here," Red Bull driver Mark Webber said on Sunday after finishing runner-up to race winner Jenson Button.
