Post by FooAtariWhile this guy seems to be a bit of a tube he does have a point. F1
is more boring now than it ever as been. BTCC, WSB, WRC, Moto GP,
FIA GT, any of lower formulas like Renault and 3 and CART are all
much more entertaining to watch.
"Nobody watches it anymore <sic>"
The global audience for F1 is still massive. If these other formulae
are so good why do very few people watch them (even when they're shown
on cable/satellite?
I don't find it at all boring, if I did I wouldn't watch it. While it
isn't as spectacular as it used to be watching the way the race
develops over the two hours is always fascinating. Of course, as a
long-time sports car racing fan I'm used to this, I suppose, watching
the way the big endurance races develop is really enjoyable. BTCC is
glorified dodgem-cars, and you can't really compare 'bike racing with
car-racing, they're two different animules.
It's going to be interesting watching the front-runners trying to
catch-up and overtake Ferrari, which they undoubtedly will.
