I was thinking that at the start of last year but still ended up watching every damn race. It's an ingrained habit at this point, I guess. Been saying since last spring that we'll have to wait until 2026 to have a realistic hope of a title fight, most likely. I'd love to be proven wrong. RBR having a headstart combined with the budget cap limiting catch-up potential means it's just so hard to see any other outcome, and that's not even getting into Max. Realistically, you'd need to not only match RBR but actually have a slightly faster car to actually get a real title fight. He's actually that good.

I think I'll try getting into GT3 racing this year, I heard that's some great action. All races live on YouTube for free too, I believe. MotoGP is apparently the way to go if that's up your alley, but I've never been into bikes. Might give it a shot anyway.
