Thanks chaps, there's plenty to consider there, from the outside looking in.
Shouldn't the sport be all encompassing?
What first attracted my interest to yesterday's result was the lack of actual cars starting, that can't be a good sign.
Although 3 Ferraris probably would be.
Then again...
Nah just threw it in there for shits and giggles.
So without F1 there wouldn't be better cars?
As for the "laughable" price of bikes.
I can buy Wiggos Pinarello for £10k and ride it on every road he does.
I can buy a replica for under £2k for those roads.
Just how inclusive is F1?
But cycling never used to be really exciting only to become proper shitehouse.
While spending billions of pounds and ruining the planet in the process.
Well yes there is that.
But F1 usually managed to conjure up some kind of competitiveness.
The only non crash related action today must have been 'can he get passed this lapped car'.
Is it racing or a sponsors procession?
- Just 15 cars start.
- Only 11 finish.
- No competition.
- Winning team half a circuit ahead of everybody else.
- Only 3 teams likely to be even close to the podium, all season.
It must have been a yawnfest.
