Obviously hard data exists, and RR3 execs have access to it. But what we have from the article is a secondhand report from a random consultant, not a Liberty guy, some time after the fact ("I was at Le Mans once" goes the quote, so presumably not this year's Le Mans) with, as you noted, key terms undefined. So I wouldn't take the 3 million number from the article as hard data.

The ~400K entrants from the HK tourney is a reasonably hard data point, as it's based on RR3's in-game tournament timesheet. The order-of-magnitude discrepancy is notable.

Maybe the number of RR3 players has been plummeting???
