The most exciting part of the race, bar the few overtakes and brake lock ups, was the nice dinner I enjoyed whilst watching it.

Not sure why someone would claim MSC to be the worst driver of the race. Was he supposed to unlap himself at catch everyone in a dog of a car W03 happens to be? His lap times were comparable to NR who had a clean race.

Barely. Everyone seemed to need DRS to do anything, and Kimi was jammed up behind Massa all race with no real passing spots. India is significantly worse than Korea.

These new tracks are apparently designed for "passing" but offer up fewer true non-DRS passing spots than Spa or even Barcelona. Compared to today, the Spanish GP was an 11/10. I fail to se why they need to be so **** if that shitness doesn't create passing like they told us it would.

Do you remember what F1 was like before 2011?

Tracks can only allow passing, not create it. Even great tracks can have boring races.

What'd you have?

Yes. But at least I could look at pretty scenery when the cars weren't passing. In India it looks like a ****ing car park with tiny little matchbox cars on a sea of asphalt, and it still creates less non-DRS passing than what there was 5 or 10 years ago.

We saw in the first half of the year even Valencia and the older European tracks were great with tyres and a little DRS, don't see why they have to be these concrete abominations if the racing is actually worse.

Here in NZ this race started earlier than most races at 10.30pm, usually after a race I struggle getting to sleep even if it is at 2am, no trouble last night, struggled to keep my eyes open. I am not sure Magny Cours was this bad! I would say bring on the next race but Abu Dhabi is just as bigger bore in the early hours of Monday morning. Can't wait until Brazil at least that is usually entertaining and if all else fails it could always rain.

I was generous and gave it a 2, Canada and Valencia were the most terrible races this season.
