MODERATORS
Of course it should be reported now. There is people who were affected and need to know about the lawsuit, so they can decide to join in on it. It needs to be in public attention, so that both sides are pressured to play fairly, in particular the F1, since companies in the US love to play ressource games at court.
You need to discover its existence yourself and manually join it? Do the legal people not make an effort to find everyone they're supposed to be representing?
How would they know that you have been there that day and how to contact you? The F1 surely wont hand out the list of qll customers who purchased a ticket and i am not sure if it would be even legal. In my country it wouldnt be legal for sure.
In a class action lawsuit, identifying everyone who bought tickets is part of discovery. F1 will have to provide a list and it is up to the plaintiff to reach out to those people and get them to sign on. Even if someone doesn't participate, they're still entitled to any damages. It's pretty common to get a $20 check for a service you may have used a decade ago that settled a class action lawsuit, even if you never heard of it before. I just got one from Zoom for anti-competitive practices during COVID.
No idea, I guess publicising it makes sense
