Be Excellent To Each Other

Forgot about F1. That's nice, though I have to admit to preferring the pre-race glamourfest to the during-race lapfest.

I really like F1, but I always feel really sad when I watch F1 from a couple of decades ago, due to how much better it used to be.

And that made the season at least more fun to watch than when Ferrari would only let Schumacher win, and noone else could challenge.

For some reason, I tend to favour sports that make absolutely abysmal spectator sport.

Rifle shooting and snooker being the main two. Perhaps I just don't like being watched.

Go another year back and they won 15/16 and only a red mist moment from Senna prevented a complete sweep.

SEE ALSO: Rugby. And for largely the same reason. Having a technical free throw given against you / getting your team marched backwards ten yards every time you give the ref half a word of dissent eventually persuades even the most tattooed fuckwit / the most tattooed fuckwit that it's a bad idea.

I watch loads of sport, but the only ones that really seem to energise me are Watford or England playing football, England playing cricket or rugby or the New York Jets playing helmetball. The last one is probably my favourite on an aesthetic level, though. Nothing comes close to matching the blend of athletic ability, tactical nous, lateral thinking and extreme violence.
