I am absolutely a fan of the technology, but much less so of the sport. I suppose my issue/question is: how do you enjoy all that just watching it on TV? (This is actually a serious question; are there for example real-time websites that give you an information overlay on what's happening, or do you just enjoy watching knowing how complicated it is underneath the surface?)
Sorry, on re-reading you do talk about off-track being just as exciting; so I suppose I'd rephrase the question as: where do you follow all this information?
I do both. Enjoy just watching it but also follow on an iPad app that provides a lot of detail. Its actually really exciting this year with the DRS (http://www.ozracingwrap.com.au/news/formula-1/2537-the-f1-mo...). A lot passing and attempted passing. I couldn't move from the Turkey GP and Webber's drive from 18th to Podium in China was awesome. You do need to like cars and speed to get into it but as the lights countdown for the takeoff my heart definitely beats faster. Being friends with a Renault wind tunnel model designer and former F3 driver helps also :)
I really like f1fanatic.co.uk for pretty good analysis and updates (and, of course, gossip and drama! :). There is a pretty good forum on there for people to chat too, and it has a lot of very knowledgeable people who hang around.
... I just realised that this article was on f1fanatic, DUH. But yeah, it's definitely the best site I've seen for F1 news.
