More than 100 people were defrauded, and Spanish prosecutors are seeking a nine-year sentence. Her former partner has already been sentenced to six and a half years.

I've seen this kind of sketchy tour-package pitch hanging around the paddock for years. Dangling Silverstone and Misano tickets and taking €730,000 off more than a hundred people — preying on fans' wallets like that is unforgivable. Glad this arrest finally closes the chapter.

100+ people scammed and it took this long to make an arrest, way too slow
