F1 drivers are 1/2 Pint horse jockey wannabe's who drive cars that do
everything except drive themselves.

I'd have given you an answer if your post hadn't been so offensive.  I'm
guessing you don't really want to know anyway.

No, they changed their name a few years back to reflect a more general
concern for the environment and biodiversity...

Anyhoo, I'm going to answer this at least semi-seriously for some weird
reason...

No, F1 is not for wimps[sic]. It's ***y hard work. Having said that,
I don't believe it's hard enough these days - there are *far* too many
"driver aids" (horrible term). Jean Alesi is the only driver left on
the grid who's driven with a manual 'box at Monaco - now *that's* hard.

They need to get rid of a lot of the gizmos. Saying "oh, we can't
police it" is a huge and feeble cop-out - it's akin to giving up on
drug testing in athletics or letting corruption run wild(er) in
cricket. It's just not a good enough excuse.

NASCAR is great for those who want wheelbanging action (though Jason
Plato seems to be trying to recreate this single-handed in the
BTCC...), and I approve of its existence. Just don't try to make out
it's some kind of world-class international series, 'cause it ain't.

You're right, it's just not cricket, is it old bean :-) As the news has
probably not reached America yet, last year the S. African captain Hansie
Kronje admitted taking bribes and pointed the finger at a number of other
senior players. I think it can be compared with the "White Sox" scandal (he
says, knowing nothing about baseball). Apparently some people care about the
outcome of a game that goes on for 5 days and ends in a draw... makes
Bernie's mobile cigarette hoardings seem wildly exciting, doesn't it?
