Your Favorite Motorsport Other Than Formula 1

I don't know if anyone has done this, nor I hope this isn't off topic. But what motorsport do you pay attention too, to pass the time for the F1 races? For me, it would be the WRC. I probably like it more than F1, but it's been kind of in a slump lately. Since only two manufactures compete in the sport, and it's being dominated to the point of boredom by Sebastien Loeb. (Good driver, but when you have one person winning all the time, what's the point of watching it?) But I'll always have a soft spot for rally racing. So what do you guys like?

V8 Supercars. Even though Jamie Whincup is doing the same thing that Vettel is doing...

Sportscars. Like an F1 car, in a traffic jam, with a diesel engine and wipers. So not like F1. But still awesome

Strangely, here in the U.S., we get more coverage from V8 Supercars, then we do WRC.

I subscribe your comments about WRC. Actually, rally racing was the first motorsport I followed, back in 1998. I was more on rallies (and I did went to some rallies as a spectator in Majorca) than in F1 until 2005, when Mitsubishi was no longer there, Hyundai went out too and Skoda was about to do the same. I think the WRC needs two or three more manufacturers to have more skillfull drivers with proper machinery, and I'd quite enjoy seeing some traditional teams come back like Toyota, Mitsubishi, Subaru or even Fiat in the place of Lancia. It saddens me immensely to see Petter Solberg without an official drive and other promising drivers truggling to get into the sport because of a lack of funds to afford privateer drives.

Oh, Burns, Gronholm, Sainz, Martin, Mäkkinen, Bugalski, Delecour, Schwarz, Thiry...those were the days.

Well there's now BMW's presence in the form of the Mini, plus VW have confirmed they're going to be joining in 2013 for at the very least 3 seasons I believe.

I agree about the late 90s/early 00s period though, much like the heyday of touring cars, especially the BTCC, all the manufacturers made both really cool series to watch!

For me though as some of my other posts on here may have suggested, as a rider myself I love watching the MotoGP, some of the races are just superb, last weekend at Le Mans was a classic, as was the wet Jerez race earlier in the year. Really looking forward to what should be another decent battle for the title after Lorenzo cake-walked it last year with Pedrosa and Rossi out injured. Should be a good season!

Hmmm... let me think,

Favourite overall is WRC, but my favorite non-rallying motosport would be in Europe WTCC and across the pond it´d be NASCAR.

PS. If GP2 wasn´t spec series, I´d probably nominate that on too

Pointrox · Post by **Pointrox** » 21 May 2011, 12:09

WTCC, although entirely dominated by Chevrolet and without Lada, still is my favourite motorsport.
As well as the the supporting series. Previously it was Formula Two (now I only check the results to see how The Fire King and Natalia Kowalska are doing), now it is of course Auto GP. To be honest, one, only one of the two races is more action packed than both races in F2.

I agree. Why isn't Solberg working for Citreon, or Ford? I still think he hasn't lost his prime yet. He hasn't won a race since the tragic British Rally back in 2005, but he is still regularly scoring points, and occasionally has a good podium from time to time.

I moved away from Essex over a decade ago. One of the things I miss when it's mentioned is banger racing...there's nothing quite like seeing half-dead Cortinas and Capris whacking seven shades of bathplug and other bathroom accessories out of each other. And the DIY paintjobs... some of them were quite brilliant.

Can we correct the name of this thread please? Aprostropes are used to miss letters out. You do not mean, "You are Favourite Motorsport..." so you use "Your."

Anyway, my favourite is BTCC - lots of genuine on-track battles without resort to DRS/KERS gimmicks etc. Would love to watch IndyCar but isn't on terrestrial TV channels here or on at a deceent time...

MansellsEyebrows · Post by **MansellsEyebrows** » 21 May 2011, 18:05

I love the BTCC, however last year my favourite series outside of F1 was actually (ashamedly) Superleague Formula. I'm sorry, I know the football/motorsport concept is ridiculous, the series managment is poor with this years calendar being changed about 3 times already.....but the sound of those V12 engines, the fantastic racing that the series produces....it's a guilty pleasure.

ibsey · Post by **ibsey** » 21 May 2011, 18:29

I'm also a fan of WRC, particularly from the mid 80's era when the rally cars were 500 bhp monsters. Although they were also massively dangerous. Also love sportcar racing & Lemans. Again I prefer watching the older stuff mainly late 80's early 90's group C cars which simply don't compare to today's more tamer form of racing. As neither WRC or Sportcars aren't on terrestrial TV channels in the UK, I'm a bit out of touch on them both, until I can source them elsewhere.

Been watching alot of British F3 recently & Felipe Nasr (which sounds alot like Felipe Massa when prenouced) is looking like he might be a future F1 star.

jpm · Post by **jpm** » 21 May 2011, 19:14

INDYCAR! Also gotta love the BTCC and FIA GT1 championships, although the V8 supercars are also very entertaining, and GP2 is great for watching hilarious accidents and no hopers trading paint with the next Alonso and Button. Talking of trading paint, I've also gotten into NASCAR over the last 5 years, espeically during Daytona time. Yet nothing for me beats the Indy 500; Pole Day beats F1 Quali anyday!

Ferrarist · Post by **Ferrarist** » 21 May 2011, 19:37

Although I inform myself about many series, I only do watch series I get on TV/Stream. Because I don't have the nerv to download the newest races from any series out there in the world. Thus I watch the DTM, the ADAC GT Masters, the WTCC, the ALMS/LMS, the FIA GT1 World Championship and the World Series by Renault. I'd like to watch the BTCC, but the ITV4-Stream isn't available in Germany, and I don't have a satellite dish. I also don't have a subscription to MotorsTV, thus missing other series such as V8 Supercars or the International Supercar Series.

My favorite form of Motorsport is endurance racing, because of the different classes and cars that compete there. To me, it's something special if you watch an endurance race on a tv or pc, and the live timing on your pc. I also like touring car racing, but the DTM is rather boring these days, and the WTCC is on a good way to boredom, since Chevrolet dominates the series. So why do I like touring car racing anyway? Largely because I used to watch a lot of touring car races in my childhood. DTM/ITC, STW, BTCC on Eurosport and so on.

Post by **mario** » 21 May 2011, 20:27

It's interesting to see that Touring cars and Endurance racing are quite popular alternatives, along with GT racing and some of the open wheeled junior series.

Now, I am quite interested in a reasonably wide cross section of motorsport - I was for a while a fan of WRC, although I became increasingly disinterested as teams and drivers dropped out.
Loeb may be a gifted rally champion, but in recent years he has had very little competition - team orders within Citroen keep him on top, whilst Ford struggle to consistently compete with Citroen (and this year Citroen really do have a big advantage). So, once the coverage moved from mainstream channels to specialist channels, I decided that it wasn't worth shelling out.

Like others, I am also interested in Endurance Racing because there is far more road relevant technical development there compared to F1, and in general there are some quite interesting concepts coming up.
However, here too I've lost some of the enthusiasm I once had; the ACO is bending over backwards to please Peugeot and Audi, whilst destroying the privateers and even some works backed outfits. Frankly, most of the ACO's attempts at "equalisation" are jokes at best, and cripplingly expensive at worst - and compared to F1, the difference in spending between the Peugeot-Audi outfits and everybody else is staggering. Audi and Peugeot do more test mileage than the rest of the field combined - figures of 15,000km plus (each) are mentioned, and they still want to do more (Audi are currently holding private tests at Monza, barely three weeks ahead of the Le Mans 24 Hours, with the third iteration of the R18 in as many months).
OK, in Formula 1 the disparity between the lowest and highest budgets might be marked - and the recent drought in sponsorship means that most of the top teams have seen their budgets shrink, not grow - but we are talking about factors of three or four at most. Over in Endurance Racing, we are talking about orders of magnitude in spending - Peugeot's engine division, for example, probably has a bigger budget than most privateers have for a full season.
To add insult to injury, the ACO have enshrined manufacturer dominance into the regulations - saying that a 2% performance advantage is acceptable - and over at mulsannescorner.com, the privateers are making it clear that they resent the fact that the ACO makes them bear the brunt of expensive changes in regulations, not the manufacturers. The recent example was after the recent test at Le Mans, where Peugeot and Audi were lapping in the mid 3m26's, or about 3.5s a lap faster than the ACO's target time of a 3m30 (and well over nine seconds faster than the nearest petrol powered privateer).
Did the ACO try to slow the diesels down? No, they upped the restrictor sizes for the privateers - which was not what they'd asked for. And that's before we get to the allegations and photographs showing pretty clearly that the R15+ and 908 HPi were running an illegal exhaust at the 2010 Le Mans.

Still, on the other hand, if you look beyond the prototype classes, the GT classes are much more interesting. We've still got the classic Porsche-Ferrari battle, and the new GTE class has a few oddball choices there, like the Jaguar XKR.

Sorry for the slight rant there (though I have to say the ACO are infuriating at times). The problem is, in many series, whilst the racing has traditionally been good, all too often a withdrawal of manufacturers or a stagnation of technology and developments has let the sport decay.
Even in DTM, Mercedes were able to dominate last year - in a series where the organisers actively try to prevent a manufacturer lock out, and normally succeed. WTCC is dominated by Chevrolet these days, with a watered down field to match, and whilst there have been some cracking on track battles in the GT1 series last year, the organisers have been struggling to fill out the grid this year.

BTCC or WTCC - the former has some great racing but unfortunately also has Jason 'Crash into everyone and if that doesn't work, whinge endlessly' Plato. The latter unfortunately currently has the boring Chevys winning every time but still some good battles and also has Gabriele Tarquini!

Thanks to whomever corrected the grammer in the title of this thread (Mario, I assume - thank you!).

Forgot to add that I was also a great fan of A1GP when it was around - I was at Brands Hatch for every round of A1 held there, including Piquet Jnr's wins there at the inaugural meeting. I would love to know more about this proposed A10 series but there just seems to be no news forthcoming at all.

I have recently started to enjoy watching Indy Car. Especially team KV, who have Sato, Ernesto Viso (who seems to crash every race) and that mad man Tony Kanan! All though I may enjoy it for the lack of talent and the American promoters calling them "The greatest drivers on Earth."

I have a passing interest in endurance racing, will be watching the 24 hours hopefully all the way through!
GO AUDI!

GP2 is interesting in it has the likely future stars of F1, mixing with the like of Fairuz Fauzy xD

BTCC is great with a strong healthy field and epic racing, unfortunatly the same can't be said for WTCC which I used to watch eevery race for.

Moto GP is my favourite 2 wheel sport, mainly down to the strong characters presented in the riders and the many epic duals between Rossi, Lorenzo, Stoner and Pedrosa!

However I do not like:
Stock car racing of any kind.
DTM, find a series with less overtaking.
V8's, just strikes me as dull.
and the worst of all, Porsche Supercup. A 1 make spec series, that seemingly goes on forever with no character or overtaking of any kind, they don't even sound that good from trackside.

MinardiFan95 · Post by **MinardiFan95** » 23 May 2011, 09:04

I've always loved a wide variety of motorsports (yes, even Drag Racing and NASCAR), but my favourite motorsports are BTCC, WRC and GT racing. BTCC I like for it's close racing and number of different cars (there are around 10 different models of car on the grid this year). WRC doesn't seem that interesting on TV, especially with Loeb continuing to dominate, but it is spectacular to watch in person (I'll be going to Rally Australia for the second time this year). Last but not least, GT racing, which is great because of the amount of exotic cars but above all else, the amount of F1 Rejects on the grid and often winning.

dinizintheoven · Post by **dinizintheoven** » 23 May 2011, 10:22

Now that I think of it, a lot of you are mentioning the BTCC - which I watched avidly, or at least whenever I could, in the 90s, when pretty much every manufacturer with a repmobile would go racing. Over the course of that decade we had BMW, Vauxhall, Ford, Renault, Peugeot, Audi, Honda, Toyota, Alfa Romeo, Nissan, Volvo... even Mazda got in on the act. There were F1 Rejects - Joachim Winkelhock (the 1993 champion), Gabriele Tarquini (the 1994 champion), Johnny Cecotto... and not-so-reject Derek Warwick. There were drivers I recognised from F3 and other single seaters, such as Kelvin Burt, Rickard Rydell and Laurent Aïello (the 1999 champion). And there was Matt Neal, who I'd only ever known as a Touring Car driver and who hit Alan Gow's wallet for £250,000 for winning a race in 1999 in a non-works car.

Then, at the end of 1999, something went wrong, with a mass pull-out of manufacturers... and the 2000 season, with three cars each from Ford, Vauxhall and Honda, along with a mere handful of independents, and the "Class B" separate championship for production cars, just didn't work. For an F1 equivalent, think of three Ferraris, three McLarens and three Red Bulls racing alongside two of last year's Lotuses and Virgins and maybe one Hispania, plus a few GP2 cars to fill up the grid... no, it doesn't bear thinking about. 2000 was, in many ways, a stop-gap before the new regularions for 2001 where cars from the next class down - the smaller family hatches rather than the repmobiles - would be racing against each other. But I never picked up on this new BTCC as much as the old SuperTouring years - and with Murray Walker also out of the picture, who had been as enthusiastic in his commentary for the BTCC as he had with F1, and that it was endlessly shunted around the TV schedules, I lost track of it. With the current regulations, it looks far closer to what it was in the 1990s, but there still isn't the massive manufacturer interest that there was then, no competition to see whose repmobile is best - and although the TV coverage is being massively stepped up, it just never occurs to me to watch ITV4 or even check its schedules; the channel is so anonymous I almost forget its existence.

Talking of ITV4, I did watch its GP2 coverage in 2008, and was rather looking forward to seeing as much of the 2009 GP2 season as I could. Of course, with the TV rights for F1 going to the BBC, that also knocked ITV's GP2 coverage sideways and it ended up on... Setanta. I saw, I think, one race of the 2009 season - maybe two - and I remember the programme cutting off very sharply almost as soon as the winner had crossed the line. Next thing we know, Setanta has crashed and burned, and suddenly, there was no GP2 on TV at all. So, again, I lost track of it, and all I can do now is follow the next generation of F1 drivers on Wikipedia...

For all its obvious F1 Rejectfulness and ex-BTCC-non-rejectfulness, I've never taken to the ETCC or WTCC, mainly because I don't remember ever having the means to watch it. I had Sky Sports for a while, if not very long, and that may have been where I saw a race or two.

OK, coming back to the thread subject.

I like to watch every bit of motorsport that I catch on TV. But I certainly don't schedule my life accordingly (except F1 that is).

I used to like Rally but then they introduced the WRC rules and for me the series started fading. Then Loeb and Citroen came. Since then there was clearly no point in seeing a battleless series...

I watched BTCC when I was a teen (and then a bit after I played TOCA Touring Car). Great series with great drivers which then watched manufacturers fleeing the scene as well as the top drivers who went to the WTCC.

The DTM was great stuff in the 90s with plenty of different cars on the grid and early 00s when a certain silver Mercedes was racing around. After which it grew increasingly in a Mercedes-Audi affair specially when Opel left. And I don't like the fact that, in order to keep a grid full of cars and allow manufacturers to sell cars, they field older versions of the cars and then choose who drive for the latest models effectively ending up choosing who will fight for the title.

Dakar is not exactly a live TV sport or something that one can watch unless in highlights. But I like it and I usually follow it. The rest of bajas and stuff like that, while fun, it only gets broadcasted in rare occasions.

Lower formula. I watch it every time I can especially F3.5R and GP2. Which are my favourites.

I also like NASCAR when in bigger speedways or road courses and Indycar. I try to watch them when I can and follow resumes and analysis.

V8 Supercars was virtually unknown for me until TOCA Race Driver came along. But is something that we don't have at decent hours...

I also like Le Mans and Le Mans Series when they are shown. The FIA GT championship was stuff of early 00s when it was broadcasted on eurosport.

Karting I like to do.

I'm assuming that Phoenix's "threat" was meant purely as a joke (and, actually, for all the teasing, Phoenix's grammar is actually pretty good these days - I've seen worse examples from people who supposedly use English as their native language).

My second-favourite type of motorsport is a weird one: Motorcycle road-racing, as in the Isle of Man TT, the North-West 200 and several other Irish and Northern Irish races. In contrast to the hyper-technical nature of Formula One, it's a sport that's very down-to-earth. It's also full of riders who are hard-as-nails, yet still approachable.

He'd be one of the people I'm thinking of, but I'm also thinking as much of the Joey Dunlops and Ryan Farquhars - people who seem ordinary on the surface, but who can lap a superbike around public roads at 160mph, 180mph, perhaps 200mph, without skipping a beat.

I was always a big fan of sportscar racing, in fact it's my first love, rather than Formula 1. I love hillclimbs for the incredible driving and technical challenge involved, but recently I got into the BOSS championship in a big way. It's awesome! Formula 1 cars, IndyCars, IRL, GP2, WSR, all on the grid, racing against each other. I went to the race at Donington a little while ago and I loved it. Motors TV covers it.
