F1 Do you believe the hype

[Khamelion]

Best part of 1 is the start and if it rains.

BTCC is far and away much better viewing, I used to really enjoy going to Croft, Oulton Park, etc... taking the camera and watching the action. Plus point is the supporting races as well the Ginetta series, I've not seen the BTCC this year, but there used to be the Renault Clio Cup, BMW single seaters, Porsche Carrera cup, different cars, but superb racing.

The other series are just as competitive as the BTCC event. Far better value for money than going to F1, especially the British grand prix. I just see the lure of F1 anymore but plenty of fans on here. I remember listening to James Hunt's stories in the bar at Wimbledon Common GC as an awe struck 14 year old (he didn't tone it down for my delicate ears). There was also one of Nelson Piquet's pit crew there and what they got up to in those days was wild!
