Formula One is just so pointless 08:51 - Apr 13 with 14976 viewschristiand

This just me? Why not give the the manufacturers the same model car and see who the best driver is. It’s Mercedes by a distance season on season... so dull.

Reading the articles on BBC Sport’s homepage, I noticed yet another 1,2 for Mercedes again today. What an exciting season this is for Formula One!! 🤥

I'd be interested in knowing how you can judge an entire event from just the BBC homepage. Federer won his 10th Halle title today - I don't see you making sweeping judgements about tennis from that headline and his obvious dominance.

Today's race wasn't good and there are huge issues. Your posting however is equally as rubbish. We know you don't like it, nobody has asked you to watch it so why don't you just give a it rest? You didn't even watch it so why do you even care?

‘Hook, line and sinkered,’ just too easy! 😂 The Mercedes’ dominance is just not doing Formula One any favours. Appreciate you’re defending a sport you enjoy, but surely even you can see it?

I've not defended the sport. In fact if you read the thread I've said things need to change.

Dominance has always been a thing, Williams, Ferrari, Red Bull etc. It's pretty rubbish but as you've said you don't watch it all you're doing is trolling and acting like a wally.

Dominance in the past, but not to this extent, an embarrassing response of Cameroonian proportions. Go and collect your toys and put them back in your pram!! 😂

Williams would have won every race 1-2 in one season given their car was 2 seconds quicker if they had the reliability of the cars now.

Perhaps it would be better if you knew what you were talking about.

You're a troll, something which is getting worse on the board. All you are doing is trying to get a rise from people.

Give it a rest.

The problem you have is that I’ve called it exactly what is and you don’t like it. You don’t have to respond, but you can’t help yourself. Throughout the thread I’ve not been unreasonable, the situation is what is.....a dull and predictable affair! 👍

You've admitted in your post you were trolling so bit odd to shift your stance now.

I agree, it's been dull and predictable today, very much like your posts actually.

The first time you mention it fair enough, you’ve watched the sport and given your opinion that it’s boring. But then to come back again and again after every race commenting on how rubbish it is, what’s the point?

I don’t enjoy watching women’s football but I’m not going to watch the games and then come on here moaning about how rubbish it is and ask why people bother watching it.

Perhaps you should find a hobby or something else to watch on a Sunday.

Admittedly the French GP was not the best. However, there is usually entertainment to be had down the grid. In fairness the TV people usually pick up on it and focus on those cars.
Years a go the camera's just watched Schumacher lap after lap.

I have been watching motorsports since the early 1990s, there has been dominance by one team over every decade. 90s was Williams...the 00s was Ferrari, now we have Merc. Its part and parcel of the sport.

Yes, the French GP was a snooze fest. Austria maybe better next week. Then the Brit GP two weeks later, hopefully some wet weather may just happen and therefore mix it up.

I think you've got to be a bit of a F1/racing geek to be able to watch it and find much enjoyment. To a casual observer there's virtually nothing engaging or exciting about it, and hasn't been for a while.

Not to this extent? In 1988 McLaren won 15 of the 16 races (and only failed to win the other as Senna was wiped out by a backmarker with 2 laps to go), whilst in 2002 Schumacher came in the top 2 in all but 1 race, coming third in the other

So hardly unprecedented

The Williams in 1992 was 2 seconds a lap faster than the next car.

That's a far bigger gap than Mercedes have.

But when you’re talking over a 5 year period of dominance from Mercedes, that’s a little bit different to 1 season.
