If they operate in the US, like they are at this very moment in Miami, they are supposed to follow US law. They don't get some weird ass exception just cause the governing body is located elsewhere. Just like countries are free to ban cigarette advertising, the US does have the ability to say "you want to race here, follow our rules."

Think of it this way, McDonalds is an American company, but their UK subsidiary has to follow UK law, not American law. But if that UK franchisee wants to open a store in the US, they still have to follow US law. Does that make sense to you? The business that is operating in the US follows US advertising law, food safety law, employee protection law, environmental law, etc. Not JUST UK law.

Yes, they can revoke their Miami race. Good, we're getting somewhere. I'm glad you've come around and changed your stance.

They have jurisdiction of what happens in the US, but not elsewhere. I.e. they can blackmail FOM by saying if you don't allow (another) American team into F1 then you can't race in the US...

But they cannot apply US laws to FOM or enforce that they must allow more entrants.

Not JUST UK law.

Yes just UK law. A McDonald's in the UK only has to follow UK law. If you think otherwise, you are wrong.
