Cuz, you know, in these championships where the "top class" is just a "regular bike", you may end up facing THE WORLD CHAMPION in a small event. Lots of people still going to the woods to watch those fellas ride, even more when WORLD CHAMPIONS are racing there, "out of nothing", simply because "Oh they are all on the same bike". These feelings push me into "Ok, WRC top class gotta be Rally2. We gotta be closer to these "national" championships. Whats the point on being the PLAYBOY series, u'know? "OH BUT FORMULA 1" shhh, to hell with F1, jeezz haha
(I keep talking way too much with myself...)

Haha I had to check to see if it this was true! Weird. From time to time I try to watch F1 but it turns me off soooo quickly. Its the DRS. I cant stand that. Rarely a Ferrari would be in front of Lewis (Pre 2021) or in front of Max (since then), and IT IS already an impossible task to hold the fastest car/driver... but the fight doesnt even last ONE LAP nowadays. Its so dumb. Its honestly unbliveable that everybody is ok with that! haha Thats like... "well, here comes Messi/Ronaldo with the ball, tell the goalie to leave the goal open"

Edit: Just read that the new Formula 2 cars had this new weird super high rear wing (It looks cool tbh) but that will IMPROVE even more the DRS effects haha And they are testing that on F2 before adopting in F1, like with the 18' tires or something like that. So... EVEN MORE effect for DRS. "The drag will slow the leader way more now".... haha WHY!?! FFS, WTF is happening

No, me neither. And once upon a time I never missed a race......

It's utter garbage, a lack of action - with most of the stories off track. I no longer see the attraction of it. The amount of attention from the media, and the public astounds me. Motorsport for people who know very little about motorsport.......As they don't know of any other series.

Exactly 0

The MotoGP round just got cancelled and even though they have a contract for next year no one is expecting that to happen.

Meanwhile Dirtfish had an article link about Paraguay in WRC in 2025 buy seems they pulled it before I could read it.
