There are almost no battles on the track anymore, everybody cuts corners as much as they can, and most of the passes are just push button to overtake by DRS. For me this is as bland as water fused with pickles.
And that's different from 2011 and 2013 how?

If you don't like it just go away and watch something else. There are a dozen other top line motorsport series and hundreds of other sports, possibly even more pure and entertaining than F1. Just go and watch them and leave us who do enjoy even the processional F1 races to watch them in peace.

And if your retort is going to be "I've watched F1 for 20 years" then just look up sunken costs bias, then move on.

Apparently Toto called up Jos Verstappen to aks for his son to behave.
So the Mercs should be safe in this one.

- How did you connect it to Rosberg and not Hamilton #-o ?
- Only two races left for Rosberg to benefit from team orders.

??? I think it is more about Ham.
If Ves shoots Ros out, no one cares. But if he touches Ham, British media will eat him alive.

Nice straight words by Toto to the Gossip Girls (Sky UK bunch)

Would love to see a great battle out on track!
I hope u dont mean another of Hamiltons "lockups" at the start and strolling trough the asphalted runoff area with gaining no "advantage", and rejoining back at the same position few meters further away from the pack. And with pointing out Hamilton in particular i otherwise think about all other drivers as well driving all over the track.

What we are watching this year is a farse in terms of racing, and all and all a Mercedes show which was probably intentionally introduced for fans, so they would not stop watching more than 5 races before the end.

There are almost no battles on the track anymore, everybody cuts corners as much as they can, and most of the passes are just push button to overtake by DRS. For me this is as bland as water fused with pickles.
Come on "iotar_", you didn't need another identity here. I like you better with original identity itself. Naughty boy. 8)
Amm this is my one and only identity on this site, and u can ask the site owner if u dont believe me. What i wrote are the facts which i am seeing trough years of watching F1. Did not mean to troll, but i just find funny when someone writes he is hoping to enjoy "battle" on track, when we all know that this "battles" and "action" is so bland in recent years that it is just sad. Maybe im the only one seeing the situation as it really looks like. Sometimes i feel like John Nada in They Live movie. And im not here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, im just here to post comments with my opinions and it was not an ofensive one, but just plain truth of what is happening here. Sorry if i smashed dreams of some people, but it is time that some of them put my glasses on and see the F1 as it really is: Uneventfull and silly.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

Not really 20, but arround 18 for sure. Enough to see the down spiral in which the sport has fallen in.
