    I own this domain, f1reviews.com for some time now.
    It is an F1 (Formula 1) news site.
    It has increasing traffic and ranks good for several keywords.

    The way I got it is quite a long story.

    After I regged the domain I found a post on a blog made by the previous owner.
    He was saying that he used to own this domain but has been forced to shut his site down by, FIA (motorsport federation) itself, as he had been told that the term "F1" is copyrighted. A huge amount of $$$$$$ has been asked to buy permission to continue operating.
    I started looking for more info on this and found that just a few days before I registered the domain, three courts (English, French and European) have decided that the term "F1" can't be copyrighted as it is a generic term describing a sport, just like "basketball" etc.
    So I was free to use this domain for my own purposes.


    I would really like to know how much you think this domain is worth.
    Please appraise seriously.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hey never thought of that actually.
    The site has nothing to do with the keyword "F1" though.

    Thank you guys.

    All other appraisals are welcomed.
