If you truly had to single out the owners, one would have to look at Bernie Ecclestone and the FIA (Federation Internationale de l'Automobile). Ecclestone has been the eccentric ringleader of Formula 1 for years, and the FIA "manages" international motorsport.

If you're thinking that the tracks own the race, you would be a tad confused. Basically, the track's sanctioning bodies "rent" the services of Formula 1. Certain countries (Dubai; Sepang, Malaysia, what have you), fork over the majority of their yearly budgets to meet the demands of the FIA and Formula 1. Thier countries go for one huge event that will absolutely make money instead of many events spread throughout the year.
