Formula Bore

When there's an F1 race on TV these days, I watch the first few laps then go and do something else. Later I'll switch on again to see if I can find out who won.

This is turning out to be a very efficient way of watching all the "action" in a 90 minute race by only actually spending 5 minutes in front of the TV.

Last night the sports channel proudly introduced "Moments Of The (Belgian GP) Race" in the post-race show. The "moments" were...

1. 2 cars driving very close to each other at the first corner.
2. 1 car overtaking another on Lap 4.
3. The winner crossing the finishing line.

So in summary, apart from a hint of excitement on the first corner and one overtaking manouvre on Lap 4 - nothing exciting happened during the entire 90-minute 20-car race, therefore fully justifying my viewing strategy.

Live internet text coverage of MotoGP is more exciting!
