don't even talk about indi that has to be the most boring shit i have ever seen cars built to go round in circle thats why they have less grip, the only street circuits they have its a precision not much passing except in the pits and the event of some major brain fade wheer someone majorly take sout another car.
F1 is good they should of left it the way it was sure they have taken ferrari out of the game this year, but instead renault has pretty much dominated. I reckon they need to get back to the good old days stuff regulating the sport let them do whatever they want you know why cos it develops technology. Put it this way in terms of engine building a small V8 ain't gonna be a disadvantage for ferrari gee they ahve only been doing it for road cars for their whole existence.
Look at the V8 supercars, they have regulated them into a state where every car is pretty much the same, it just makes for boring racing as no-one can pass as they don't have an outright speed advantage on any part of the cicuit. The same sort of thing happened at Imola.
Cos of the new aero regs it means when following someone the dirty air disturbs the cars a lot more. So schumacher was 2 secs a lap quicker than alonso but as soon as he caught short of ramming him of the road cos alonso nailed it out of the corners he couldn't do anything

IndyCars in the 90's was :

2 superspeedways
1 speedway
3 1-mile ovals
5 street courses
5 Race Circuits (called road-courses in the U.S.)

Hardly one-dimensional or boring stuff. I agree that it's fvcked NOW, but the Mid-90's indycar championship was pure-GOLD !

Did you see any of it for yourself, Corona?

V8 supercars now is a bit too processional, for sure - but what do you expect when everyone has same power, same tyres, similar strategy and same aero-package? I'm talking about putting the F1's on DIFFERENT tyres, fuel, engines, weight, etc. - with VERY LITTLE downforce so that they can follow closely enough to pass. Play with the fine-detail so that everyone ends up with similarly quick race-time (total time to complete X-laps) on the various strategy, and SHA-KLACKEY! Passing action!
