Well, that would be another way to bring racing to an end.
If there's no human in it, it's no longer a sporting
competition, and spectator interest will rapidly approach
zero.

the latest big craze with big money at stake is people watching other
people play video games

the people playing are playing for a lot of money and the people
watching are nothing more than spectators

i can completely see driver-less car racing in the near future
i used to spend hours racing small electric rc cars
why not do it with life-size cars

guys with lots of money would gladly part with some to race
head-to-head in a RC driver-less car

no injuries and no loss of life
i think they would have no problem at all getting spectators to
come and watch that
