Isn't it also a bit well, boring too?

I was thinking that but then the F1 was truly awful this year! Perhaps a shorter F1 course with high speed banked corners and a similar number of starters would be good?

Sad to see yesterdays carnage! He was a handsome chap as well as a very skilled driver!

OK, I don't watch IndyCar on ovals because despite being hugely dull, it's also massively dangerous, and you're waiting for the inevitable next crash. All of the risk, none of the reward.

Good on the street circuits though

Firstly it was a hell of a shock to wake-up and hear this news. Dan was a great driver and like Dario Franchitti should have had a chance in an F1 car. My thoughts go out to his wife and children.

Secondly - if you think Indy oval racing is dull then you haven't watched enough of it! There can be some brilliant racing all down the field.

How much do you have to watch though? I mean I've been told fishing is exciting to watch if you watch enough of it.
