It is obvious that Americans love their Indy cars and the Europeans love the F1. But how about the other countries? Indy cars are bigger and faster but their race tracks are wide. While the f1 is slower on straight lines, it is more agile and their race tracks are extremely hard for the Indy car. I am from Philippines and F1 as welll as Indy car are not that popular here. But I prefer watching F1 over the Indy car. How about you?

Formula One is the best!!!I have been an avid fan of it since Mika Hakkinen first won..INdy car drivers when competed against F1 had no match..Because in indy car racing, most of the time they are just going around and around, the drivers just push harder to the limit. While in formula One, every racing track is unique. Teams must have different car set up in every race. It's unpredictable, sometimes qualifying there's a good weather, but on raceday rain falls down. TOtally, watching a formula one race is the shortest 1 1/2 hr I watched TV because of the speed..

That was the time I started watching F1 too. I go to different teams depending on their driver and their cars every year. I used to be McLaren fan, then when Kimi went to Ferrari, I followed him. Now I'm a Redbull fan, Vettel in particular. I don't know much about Indy race, I don't even know if they show it here in the Philippines.

I prefer seeing to the formula one, I am interested neither the indycar, nor 500 miles of the Indianapolis. In Argentine the category mas popular is the tourism road, later this one the tourism competition 2000, the Top Race v6 and the National Tourism. If I have to choose between seeing the F1 or the TC, I remain with the national thing.

I decided to watch this indycar season because Sato was in it. I missed the first one (it isn't shown in the UK afaik so I had to download it) but downloaded the second one. It was one of the most boring races I've ever watched, there was the traditional first lap passing but apart from that there was little on track action and the pit stops looked amateurish. I know F1 can have its bad races but that was pretty dire!
F1 all the way
