As someone who's watched F1 for years - if you *really* want to see heart-in-your-mouth racing then watch Moto-GP bike racing - really, just give it a go.

The skill and guts of those guys is amazing - they can pack more into one lap than F1 does into an entire 2h race.

F1 has improved a lot over the last couple of years though : now you can barely fit in a quick powernap if you want to come back and find nothing has changed
