Superstar Tradesman

Watched my first F1 race in possibly about 10 years yesterday (although I was flicking back and forth between channels).

 

Can't really say it was a race as such, what with the world number 1 being lapped about halfway through the race and the winner being 18 seconds ahead of 2nd place after the first dozen laps.

 

I don't really follow F1, so how is it that Button and Brawn have emerged from nowhere to dominate the "sport"?

 

From my very limited knowledge it looks like the cars are very different to last time I paid any interest.  There seems to be a lot more rules about what they can and can't do.

 

Guessing that's got some bearing on it.  :-\

F1 is not a minority sport.

 

Humphreys is doing a very good job, for someone so young.  All in all the coverage is excellent, but some of the races aren't.

 

He does women football world cup, Womens FA cup, cricket world cup, African cup of nations, superbowl and F1. These are all minority sports maybe with the exception of F1.
