a lot of sports are dictated by the money, if anything its rarer to find professional sports that are not dictated by money

prefer one one one sports where the playing field is level and not influenced by who has the most money.
Not many sports I can think of which is influenced by who has the most money.

f1 is, football certainly is.

tennis, boxing etc two people on the field of play with what they have given by nature or training, not reliant on owners buying the best player, having the best car etc.

agree somewhat with individual sports, but boxing is rife with politics and I dont believe the shit that is classed as world contenders in boxing is the best out there, far too much back scratching and favoritism going on

not the two greatest examples maybe but you get the point.

dont want to disrupt the thread for the guys who like f1 anyway so as you were chaps.

Doesn't having a better financial backing in these individual sports allow to receive the best training, the best coaches, the best equipment, e.t.c...

tennis was a poor example as you need money at the start to get the best coaching although the lta has tried to address it.

still on a different level to chelsea/the manchester clubs etc buying the pl or the f1 teams having the best car in my humble opinion.

If I'm honest, there is more of a level playing field in F1 than in most sports.

not only has british terrestial tv lost the grand prix to sky sports now even irish tv which always showed the grand prix are not showing it.
Got rid of sky a couple of weeks ago so will have to go find a bloody stream to watch it on

the spray from the wet track must be a bastard to follow in and the leading car will have an advantage

Post by **DrZoidberg** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 9:20 am

fuckin safety car.

Post by **Justin Credible** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 9:23 am

it might not be a bad thing for a short time ,while others get sorted,

seems another 30 mins of rain in store........

Post by **DrZoidberg** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 10:17 am

we're sort of racing!

Post by **gonk** » Sun Mar 25, 2012 10:17 am

Got a feeling this could be a good race, rain opens up so many opportunities for the lesser cars to mix it up with the big guns
