    If you don’t like it, again: Watch something different

    It feels like you are insisting that F1 should be free of criticism? That’s literally all I’m doing, agreeing that those overtakes are simply yoyo due to the car behind being given a massive advantage, and that driver skill is less important now.

    As a sport, I think F1 sucks, but as a spectatle is somewhat great. As an engineering competition is very amazing

    EDIT: gotta admit that Ferrari battle was pretty fun to watch, made me dislike the regulation a lot less.

      Criticism is fine, I do it myself plenty. You naysayers want to turn F1 into something it never was.

      As a sport, I think F1 sucks

      Again: Watch something else. Nobody’s forcing you to watch something you hate.

      then why are you complaining about it? maybe watch some more before making up your mind.

      I admit I barely understood the whole thing before watching… what I know now is that there is more passing, even if it’s yoyo we get to see 2 passes to end up the same (assuming they are both perfectly executed) instead of watching one car following another for a lot longer (sometimes forever, looking at you Monaco)…

      Even better, it looks to me that cars do stay closer to one another for longer… last year, half the races were not worth watching after the first 3 laps
