    Any more insight on that Riot you witnessed last year that just so happened to occur in 1995?

    Riot is a riot - so maybe you learned a lesson?
    Uncivilized!

        Has something to do with abundant of races we watch every minutes in the USA.

        You can watch a race every friday-saturday-sunday and holidays or even drive your car in any of these facilities. formula 1 race turning is a wrong direction, just another race for us. Nothing special for us - not like in Europe...once in a blue moon.
        As I said, how many times they presented formula 1 in the US? A bunch of times and all failed!!
        They are planning to bring it again in Texas --- it will be another failure - no one will watch.

        Americans will never get F1 as it involved designing a car that is actually good! lol Not a car that goes in straight lines or one way round a track, so therefore I don't expect our American friends to really appeciate it.

          But you said you "remember it last year" yet it happened in 1995 which shows you are talking utter nonsense.

          It was also response to my question of what riots have happened recently and 1995 isn't really that recent, is it.

            Again you are wrong, there is all sorts of motorsport in Europe and the rest of the world, there is an abundance of different types racing and circuits, ie rallying, moto gp, touring car. You can drive your car to a number of circuits in the UK and in Europe...Have you ever heard of the nurburgring? The most famous and dangerous circuit in the world, you can drive it for 5 euro's. Tell me where you can drive on such a infamous circuit for that much money, which is actually on the formula 1 calendar?

            Formula 1 is a global sport it is in nearly every continent, and has a drivers from literally all over the world. So I don't understand your argument? This isn't about Europe and the USA at all.

            Formula 1 has failed for a number of reasons in the US, partly because of the success of Nascar and Indy car, and the lack of success American drivers have had in Formula 1, the lack of Formula 1 calibre tracks, thus effecting the ability of America to produce top class formula 1 drivers, they have no infastructure for it, they don't have gp2 or formula 3 (2 more types of motorsport we have in Europe). It is not because of the amount of motorsport or tracks Americans have access to, for one they have never had a purpose built track for it, they have all been street circuits with poor local infastructure. That is probably the main reason, I guarantee you Austin will work, because it is a purpose built track which will be built like an amusement centre, not just a race circuit. They are spending hundreds of millions of dollars on the whole project...and that is the first time they have done that, and that is why it will work.

            Your argument is ignorant...at best

You can see that same dedication from fans when a home fighter deserves it.
                British "soccer hooligans" are known all over the world, and banned in several countries, because of the mindless violence that thay cause during and after a match. Many of them end uo in jail, but they still persist in that mindless savagery.

                  US doesnt care about boxing as much.

                  theres basketball, american football, baseball, even hockey. goto a sold crowd at either of those sport stadium and tell me whos more passionate. ull be surprised hockey fans can be very passionate. so in boxing MAYBE u guys have passionate fans, but i bet you hispanic fighter and pacs fanbase can certainly rival you guys.



                  Exactly right!
                  In Europe formula 1 is big (especially in england), but here in the USA, F1 will not make money. There are 50 states, almost all states has 1 or 2 major racetracks. Formula 1 race here is just like another friday night race in local track.

                  Racetrack in europe are scarce, one event in a year that's all they can take.
                  They are all shouting and flag waving zhyte.

                  They attemted many times to bring the F1, but always a failure.

                  Erm......what? F1 is only 1 form of motorsport bro. Those tracks, and all the other ones that are scattered all over Europe, and believe me there is a lot of them, host different events all the time.


                  You're right about F1 never making money in the US though, not while there's hillbillies riding round and round and round and round and round and round in a circle. Who would swap that for a race that involves actual skill, and not just being able to hold the wheel steady at high speeds?

                    Is NASCAR being so dumb the reason why black people aren't involved?

                    Serious question.

                      You are living in the past. Hooliganism is nowhere near as prevelent these days and hasnt been for years now. Educate yourself.
