May I be so bold as to go against the grain here and say that Formula 1 is completely boring?

The last time I sat down and found it interesting was when Damon Hill was in 1st Place in an Arrows, he lost power but still came 2nd. I think this may have been in the Belgian Grand Prix.

I like to see underdogs prevail, to see people overcoming adversity, triumph of the mind and spirit... not a race decided by engineers and aerodynamics technicians months previous.

The same can be said of tennis. I haven't watched Wimbledon since Agassi used to play in the mid-90s - he was an entertainer. Pete Sampras was a killer too.

Formula 1 should be named Formulaic Wang. I hope the teams have a bustup and go their own way, build some interesting vehicles with less power and more capabilities.

Down with Bernie Ecclestone.

:-D

Wow, he's won a Grand Prix after 113 attempts or something. A budding young star in the making... like Tim Henman!



:lol:

Now what IS interesting is that Red Bull plane racing thing on Channel 5. Sort of like Formula 1 but planes flying through hoops.

Just really annoying that there's a 3 week break already!


Why are there no women Formula 1 drivers? Are they only good for parading with umbrellas?

Formula 1 wish list:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
· Women drivers
· Pit crew bustups
· Explosions
· Swearing/driver gesticulation
· Damon Hill
· Cooler cars with greater variety in design and tech
· New track location/layout each season
· Harry Hill doing the commentary
