Lost interest in F1 a long time ago, the car's are all button controlled it's an insult to the F1 of old when the drivers had to actually do something to win. Plus it's full of doormats who are just there to enable their higher profiled team mate to win... eg Massa
You'd never see Prost roll over to let Senna win when they were team mates at McLaren.

He wouldn't have needed to JS, the way that scumbag drove him off when he felt like it.

That's what racing is all about though, trying hard to pass 'everyone'.

Racing is NOT about pushing your team mate off the track on the first corner of the first lap to ensure that you win the world championship on points, at all costs without even having to bother competing in the event.

Who said it was? Please quote, I don't think Senna and Prost only had 1 race in their careers, maybe I'm missing something. 
Another example Mansell and Keki Rosberg, always battled well, I'm generalising, I suspect you thought I meant the incident at Suzuka in 91?

Used to feel sorry for Barrichello, the ammount of times he drove a superior race only to be told to move over at the last minute

Indeed, it's been improving again recently, after a "quiet" few years......may consider going to Oulton Park to watch it all again, if I get any spare time on those weekends.

Got to agree. Motorcycle racing is so much more entertaining. They actually overtake

I referenced Senna being a scumbag and pushing his team mate (Prost) off the track and you said that was what racing was all about. ''Trying hard to pass everyone''
I was merely stating that he was not trying to pass him, and that it was not proper racing JS.

Prost pushed Senna off
So racing is just about staying behind people then? I'll leave it with you young man.

Are you ill with a temperature and delirious, or do you genuinely believe that?
Senna ran Prost off the track, end of story, it's a very simple fact.
He wasn't behind him, they were parallel going into the bend and Senna drove the pair of them off the course deliberately, to guarantee himself the championship win on points.
Of course racing isn't about staying behind people, that is a foolish statement at best. But the other thing racing MOST definitely isn't about is pushing other drivers off of the circuit deliberately.
Presumably you are another 20 year old that thinks he has perfect recollection of something he either saw as a child or never watched in the first place.

F1 was a brilliant sport and i think it still is, the only problem i have with it now is that the FIA are making it too safe with the new regs about downforce and engine limiting etc
They should have kept to the V10s, so much better around the twisty tracks!!
Tbh though, ive been watching the aussie V8 series on channel 5 quite a lot, for some odd reason i find it quite interesting - think its the sound of the things
