I have never met anyone with anything about them that likes this `sport'.

Just wasted 10 mins of my life watching CH4 OMFG.

Full of smug middle aged men trying to look handsome.

One presenter asked some fella `do you have anything to say'. Fella `Your supposed to ask me a question'.
Presenter `erm,,....erm,....what are the weather conditions going to be like'.

They quickly moved on to some other handsome, tall presenter who was jogging around the pit lane for no apparent reason and saying nothing constructive until he passed a puzzled looking Frank Bruno (lol!) and said `Hi Frank, loving your work'.

I mean seriously wtf watches this garbage?

I've met maybe a handful of people who are fans of this sh1ite.

Every one of them was a dullard Laugh

This clip of Senna in 1990 at Monaco back when they had to take their hand off the wheel to change gear and before the braking safety stuff is hair raising stuff. But yes car racing can be a bit dull for spectators.

I'd rather watch indoor bowls than F1, it bores me senseless.

The TdF is much worse, hours and hours of mind numbing boredom.

I went to Bathurst in the 80s 3 or 4 times but I didn't see much car racing. Just a 72 hour non stop bender with some of the worst yobbos in Australia. Great times!!!!

I found myself watching the Electric powered ones now and again last year. Nice'n quiet, they do overtake, and there is a point to it technologically.

I once placed a bet on a F1 race.

Even with money on the result I still found it too tedious.

And the noise, oh my God!

They are much quieter that they used to be. So much so that fans have complained they don't sound right anymore.

There is one thing worse than watching F1. Listening to it on the radio.

Is Murray Walker still alive?  He used to come out with some pearls.

"With half the race gone, there is half the race still to go."

"This is an interesting circuit because it has inclines, and not just up, but down as well."

"Mansell is slowing it down, taking it easy. Oh no he isn't! It's a lap record."
