F1, bit of Le Mans and occasionally DTM. Perfectlap, I tend to agree that F1 is often now a 'snooze fest'. Gilles Velleneuve once suggested that they should take the (then) current cars and go to skinny tires - it would essentially simiulate racing in the wet and require much more skill to get the power down coming out of corners and in controlling slides on corners. The fact is that tire wear now seems to be the biggest factor in team success - it is extremely rare to see any driver able to go anywhere near 10/10 th's for much of the race. Sad....
