For the same reason there's not a big market for robot fights, but then you have UFC, wrestling, boxing, etc with humans.

I see little future for this. If I wanted AI races I would just watch them on any F1 videogame from the last 5 years.

Totally different. I can care a lot about car makers competing in physical although autonomous cars with technology that will possibly make it into mine.

Watching a "simulation" that doesn't even simulate real motors? Where nothing can be fed back to car makers? No thanks.

(On the other hand and in a weird twist of irony I can enjoy cs matches and certain kinds of sports events where my home country has a fair chance of winning. :)
