The "per mile" (or "per km" for the metric-heads like me! Lol) is not consistent. For example the 6-lapper at Le Mans in Endurance Champions (7.2) pays less fame than the 4-lap event in Classic Ferrari Showdown (21.3). If it were paid by the mile, there would be a factor of 1.5 times the fame between these events.

So yes, I do agree that it is not paid by the minute, but the "per minute" rate is still very relevant. This is because the only price a player pays to farm is their own time. Therefore, although the actual "per minute" rate is dependant on how quickly you finish, it provides a great indication of how much value you get for spending your time on the relatively boring task of farming.
