it depends on the contract they have with their car owner, and team. like take jeff gordon for case. he gets part of his winnings. part go into the team and to rick hendrick, but he also gets part of jimmies winnings as he is part car owner. your car owner fronts the money for everything, and then gets part of your earnings for your career. \nas for an exact amount it would be very hard to say. but let's face it.. yeah, none of them are hurting. they will probably make more money than they can actually spend. they all live fairly simple lifes as far as famous people go. yeah, they don't make near as much as NFL or NBA players, but they also lead much simplier lifes, and also, put a lot of money back into their car, and and a lot to charity. as for earnings won from each race (not take home pay..but winnings) you can go to nascar.com and see each individuals driver page and it will list for each race.

Driver salaries are always confidential, and they are based not only on a fixed salary, but there are also performance based bonuses and sponsorship bonuses.  During Jeff Gordon's Divorce, some of his finances became public information and his annual income was estimated at $20 million per year.  An excellent driver in NASCAR NEXTEL Cup earns as much as a good driver in Formula 1.

No. There is no form of Sport that generates more money than Formula-1. despite the money spent by european clubs on various players, they can't compete with the money that is pumped into technology by F-1 teams. Even the name Formula-1 suggests that it is the supreme form of sport.

In answer to yur first question currently david beckham is the highest paid this soon could be michael ballack because chelsea have bottomless pockets there is also speculation ronahldinio may sign a new contract that would entitle him to £90,000 a week. In answer to question 2 i would imagine that this is correct as the USA capital of NBA is a much larger country than the UK capital of the FA. Although the only thing that may contradict this is the folowig of football all over the world i.e. world cup to which NBA hasnt got a version of. Hope this helps ;o)

Mark Mascarenhas - this is an update:\n\nNEW DELHI, India -- Mark Mascarenhas, a cricket television baron who secured India's Sachin Tendulkar the highest salary ever paid to a cricket player, died Sunday in a road accident, news reports said. \n\nMascarenhas' car rammed head-on into another car and overturned when he was returning from the famous Velankanni Church near Nagpur in western Maharashtra state, Press Trust of India reported. He died of head injuries, the news agency quoted family sources as saying. \n\nTendulkar wasn't involved in the accident. He is in the north Indian city of Kanpur for Monday's fourth one-day international against England. \n\nMascarenhas headed the Connecticut-based sports management company WorldTel, which displayed Tendulkar's place as cricket's best selling brand after signing a multimillion dollar deal with him last year and making him the best paid cricket player ever. \n\nIn Kanpur, Tendulkar said it was a shattering news and a personal loss to him. \n\n"Though he was my agent, our relations were of friends. This is an irreparable loss," he said.
