If you think this is good for F1 you’re not a real F1 fan. (lemmy.zip)

This is absolutely ridiculous for one team to win this many races in a row.

Let’s be clear. I’m not blaming Red Bull. I’m blaming the rules that let one team be this dominant.

It pisses me off that my wife still insists on paying £32 a month to watch this shit show.

Well, it's F1, it's not a spec series. Sometimes one team really nails it.

And, I would counter; if you're not enjoying this season you're not a real F1 fan.

Not all races are pure excitement, but I can't recall that happening in my 35 years of watching.

Who wins a race is just 10% of the entertainment, for me. If that, and the racing as a whole probably account for 60%. The rest is a fascination for the science and engineering behind the sport. It's tremendously interesting.
