I know Grandprix loves it, but watching it here on ITV, it's really quite boring. The 'highlights' consist of tales of cracked exhausts and fuel stop strategies. What 'racing' there is is confined to the first few laps, then it's just a procession of cars following each other around the track.

Now I don't keep up with it every week, and this may be just a particularly dull race, but it's just not an interesting spectator sport.

What really tweaks my melon is that BTCC, a superb sport full of action, featuring what I consider to be 'real' racing, and not monopolised by one team or driver, is only shown as crappy highlights, a week after the race took place.

I've tried my damndest to like Formula 1, but I just find it yawn inducing for the most part. Why can't they put BTCC on BBC1, Live, so I can enjoy the miracle of proper motorsport?
