Yeah, I use to be a huge fan and watch every weekend and attend. Those days are long gone because it’s kind of a joke and that hurts me to say. I’ve tried to watch more the last few years and every race I watched came down to multiple green white finishes so the previous 3 hours were just a total waste. Even my kids would joke about “it’s time for the hot dog wrapper to make an appearance” when someone was running away from the pack.

If they keep the stupid stages, why not let the field un-lap themselves? It’s artificial anyway.

The stages and the changes they made ruined it.


They ruined it when they brought Toyota in, and then the Toyota's were awful so they switched to the "Car of Tomorrow" which was essentially the exact same car with different manufacturer sticker on the front.

Let's not gloss over the fact that F1 spends the silly season trying to figure out ways to arse-rape the pinnacle of motorsport. Cue the 2026 power unit rules



What a f'n disaster.

I'm sick of turbo V6 racecars. From F1 to GT3.
Gotdamn FIA has damn near taken all of the enjoyment from F1 and they're doing it sportscars too with their stupid GT specs. Fn mufflers on racecars suck! I miss GTLM/GTE or the previous GT1 GT2 cars. Racecars should be LOUD.

So what you are saying is Toyota coming into the sport ruined it. They were so awful in their first year that NASCAR switched to the CoT?

Toyota’s first season in Cup was 2007. The first year of the COT was 2007 (it was run on a part time basis). So what you’re saying doesn’t work.
