F1 has always been about playboys using daddy’s money to show off on the racetrack. More about money than talent.I saw this and thought it interesting…
Formula One Offseason Shows The Sport Is Run By Elitist Snobs
U.S. fans of Formula One should ask themselves why the sport looks down on American forms of auto racing and blocks them from competing.thefederalist.com
Unfortunately technology has surpassed physics and safety for participants and attending fans alike. Sadly that is just not possible.NASCAR embrace your moonshiner roots and come back with a bad boy trying to make good.
INDYCAR embrace the snake pit and bring back the run what you brung mentality that made it the greatest spectacle in racing.

That is partially why I like Trans Am racing - more horsepower (850hp naturally aspirated V8s), less down force, no traction control, no ABS, no active suspension, no telemetry, no required pit stops, no refueling and normally no tire changes unless one goes flat.Unfortunately technology has surpassed physics and safety for participants and attending fans alike.

Yess!If you really want crazy racing watch motorcycles race on the famous Isle of Mann Circuit. It really does require Testcles of Titanium to race like those guys. Used to be like that back in day in Formula one until big, BIG, money and TV took over like every other sport. UGH!
I’m really surprised they still hold those races. The speeds are incredibly fast and just a tiny miscue could mean sudden tragedy. Wild onboard camera views for sure.If you really want crazy racing watch motorcycles race on the famous Isle of Mann Circuit. It really does require Testcles of Titanium to race like those guys.

I use the Mute button, just like when Marten Brundle starts blabbing on F1.The secret to watching Indycar races is to record it, then when watching it, every time you hear Leigh Diffey's voice you jump ahead 30 seconds. If he is still blabbering on you jump again. This way you get the good comments without his crap.
On rare occasions there is something happening that you want to see during those 30 seconds so you have to go back and endure his prattling to see it or use mute like I do, but those times don't happen very often.
Croft is much worse even than Brundle. He is why I tried the Spanish channel.I use the Mute button, just like when Marten Brundle starts blabbing on F1.
Or for that matter while watching Indycar you can mute Danica Patrick every time she gives an opinion or statement regarding the race. Remember it was all about tv ratings with her in Indycar and NASCAR which is a joke.The secret to watching Indycar races is to record it, then when watching it, every time you hear Leigh Diffey's voice you jump ahead 30 seconds.

I must have missed Danica on Indycar. Maybe because I almost never watch the ovals. She used to drive Indycars, is she really that bad?Or for that matter while watching Indycar you can mute Danica Patrick every time she gives an opinion or statement regarding the race.

I can't wait to see all the new cars hitting the tarmac, how old and new drivers will perform under different car teams.Or for that matter while watching Indycar you can mute Danica Patrick every time she gives an opinion or statement regarding the race.

Viva Formula One where real technology hits the road-course!
PS: Watch out for Fernando Alonso this year!
