Hopefully Ralf Schumacher is alright. That was a nasty crash that happened.

F1 racing overall is boring
or the race itself is boring?

if F1 racing doesn't excite you, you need to make sure you still have a pen!s.

I hope to go next year...

I was there just got back it was the **** but i got sunburnt....... Decided this year i would buy one of those big **** ferrari flags to put in my room. it covers the whole wall. Ralf is allright he is in stable condition just a little bruised. One of his tires deflated after runnning over carbon fiber debries on the track. Good race solid performance by Ferrari. Mad props to Sato and the Honda team also.

Sato's engine actually made it through a whole race this time in the Honduh? I didn't get to see the race yesterday.

F1 cars are great, the drivers are very good too. The racing is crap though.

I think they have two problems:
1. Variations between cars spread the field out too much.
2. Aero effects and high braking g and poor course design make overtaking excessively difficult.

agreed on #1

#2 is more of a driver/car issue as well each car and driver will push their car to a certain point.

I can defnitely understand why you would feel the way you do.
