It looks like I shall miss this weekend's GP 'cos I'll be out enjoying my car. Will I watch the replay in the evening - I doubt it!
Time was when I watched (and even saved the recordings of) every Grand Prix. I've attended many both in the UK and abroad, but over the last year or so, I've lost all interest in the results.

Is it just me?

Three out of three? Does that mean there have been two races already this year?

Did you say there was a third one this weekend? I hadn't noticed.

Life's too short to watch that rubbish I reckon.

I'll watch - never miss it, although this is not a very exciting track. Why do they always get that Tilke bloke to do these new tracks ?, pretty they may be but they are all dull. Don't think Renault will make it three out of three, Schueys new Ferrari might do the job and Williams look to be improving a bit.

Next time they want a new track they should hold it on public roads Montjuich Park or Targa Florio style



See F1 cars on circuit made up of fast public roads would be fantastic. I've always thought that a circuit made of B roads in West Sussex would be great too

No, I'm the same, although I still watch the races but with less enthusiasm than a few years ago.

In fact, now days I'm quite happy to just watch the start and the first few laps before getting up and doing something and then going back to the TV occassinaly to see if anything exciting has happened.

I don't usually bother watching the second half of the race if Schumacher is way ahead. No point.

It is the same with me, never used to miss, still sticking with it but just. Wider tracks, less downforce and less poxy regs making it like traffic jam. Bring back tyre changes and one hour 12 lap qualifying, Oh yeah and Murray Walker instead of that Tt James Allen. Brundle is OK
Having said all that Quali 1 today threw up some interesting potential for a good race.

Alonso is the man this year i reckon. Been a fan of his for a few years and glad to see him kickin Fizzys butt!

Assuming the renault is reliable, id put money on Alonso for the win with schumi eatin his dust and then Trulli gettin another podium.
