Anyone watch F1? Used to watch F1 a lot.
But the last 4 years lost a bit of interest, not just coz, Red Bull where, dominating, that's fair enough, but I just can't stand Verstappen. 😡

So torn between Mercedes, still got a soft spot for them. 👍

Ferrari, but only coz I'd like to see Lewis win an 8th title, and take the outright record. 🙂

And finally McLaren, coz they race in Orange, nuff said. 😉

And the team I absolutely DO NOT want to win, is Red bloody Bull. ☹
 
After following F1 for most of my life, I gave up in disgust after the 2021(?) last race debacle. Liberty Media had turned it into a "reality" show where it seemed the result was manipulated to get the best viewing figures, so I'd had enough. I thought I would at least watch the British GP but I started then wondered what was the point it wasn't a sport anymore so that was the last time I watched it. TBH I've not really missed it, can't see me ever bothering in future.
 
I agree with @salty and @GaryMG4 . I used to watch it avidly but since the Liberty Media and Mohammed Ben Sulayem became president of the FIA it has become a media circus not a motor sport. And as for banning drivers swearing over the radio, what a load of 🐂:poop:. It only offends the viewers if the director transmits it.

I hope Lewis does win a final championship but that's as far as my interest goes now.
 
Used to be a big fan but it was never the same post Murray Walker.
 
Still watch it, and excited to see how both Ferrari and Mclaren do this season, I think the Red Bull dominance is fading. Will be good to see if Hamilton can win an 8th Championship, but Norris is also a good contender. Wasn't that long ago that people were complaining about Mercedes dominance.
