Are you still enjoying F1 this season? (lemmy.world)

Just curious. I started watching F1 back when DTS started airing (so during Hamilton's domination). It was fun, even though results were often predictable (HAM-BOT-VER).

Then there was this awesome season when Max got his 1st WDC title. It was the most fun I ever had with any sport ever.

But now? I still watch races, but, I won't lie, it's getting less and less exciting. I noticed that F1 is no longer a huge talking-point in my friend's group, as there is just less going on. Max has so huuuge advantage, that it feels like all that sport magic is gone.

What are your thoughts on this? Are you still watching races every rawe ceek? Do you still feel engaged in F1 community?

I've been watching F1 since 2014, if I was easily bored by dominance I would have stopped watching years ago.

I'm watching F1 since the early 90s. I got to enjoy the golden Senna/Prost years before back to back Schumacher - Hamilton - Verstappen reigns. I, for one, welcome our new VER overlord.

You forgot Vettel :)

This, but since 1990. 4 notable dominant periods since then (Schuey, Seb, Lewis & now Max), but I've never stopped enjoying it. The dominance never lasts forever. Focus on the midfield & there's always entertainment to be had.
