The only race I found exciting so far was Monaco. Ironic seeing as I think it is a terrible venue to hold a race and it is usually a bore unless it is wet.
DRS, fragile tyres and KERS are four gimmicks too many to have at the same time and do detract from outright racing and real passing from the days of old (now it's cruise up behind the guy ahead, push the DRS button and woosh, you've passed him - too much of a formality for me).
However, the joy of seeing Vettel leading things more than makes up for the disappointment of the new toys. He is driving extremely well (by far the best one out there) and has made very few mistakes, if any. This is why I enjoyed Schumacher’s domination so much. It is always a pleasure to a true F1 fan to see someone perform at the top of their game race after race, even if they win everything, and then not come accross as a big headed arrogant bore in the interviews.
