I still stand by my statement that F1 is boring to watch.... I don't care if it's apples and oranges. They are still lumped into the same category of motorsports. That one little video just then contained more excitement in 3 minutes than a whole afternoon spent watching F1 races. The ONLY time an F1 race gets exciting is when drivers rub the tires and go airborne flipping and probably killing themselves. I think Rally (especially the WRC),
is exciting the whole race...sort of like Pikes Peak racing. They don't need to crash to be exciting...just "almost" crash a bunch of times.
It's all good if you think it's boring, but just don't say it's boring cause F1 cars can't go doing big jumps, etc. That's like saying WRC is boring because they wouldn't be able to hang out 5 lateral G's in a corner, etc.
I think NASCAR is boring cause they can't run 4-second passes in the 1/4-mile.
