Spence,
Give me a reason to watch and I will. Aside from how amazing the cars are and the engineering aspect I just can't get into it. It lacks the soap opera qualities of Nascar. The engines also make a piercing sound that gives me migranes.  |

I don't know about lacking the soap opera, did you see Schumacker's little "spin" during the last lap of qualifieing right in front of Alonso last week when Alonso was on pace to take the pole away. The press conference after was a joke. I wanted to see Alonso call him out but he didn't have the balls. I find the technology of F1 fascinating but the lack of real racing (i.e. passing) really kills the whole thing. I heard a week or so that there had only been one pass for the lead on the track so far this season. |

Still in the top ten at least right? Hey, Jamie McMurray finished second so good things can happen to anyone.
Did you see those shots of the front end of the 24. That was crazy how high it was. Looked more like it should at Martinsville. |

Ya still in the top 10 but 9th and 428pts out of 1st.Before you know it he ain't in the chase.Sept. in Louden'll be here before you know it.
I really can't complain I was a fan from the very beginning and we had our day.I guess the realization hit me that he's on the down side of his career.There are certainly more races to be won but it'll never be like it was before. |

He still has some good years left but its definately a young man's game now. Hopefully he'll be smart enough to get out before he becomes a joke like DW did toward the end. I think he's smart enough to do that. I don't know if he has another championship in him but he'll win races.
