It's hardly boring, especially this year. I purposely paid as little
attention as I could during the four months of the all aluminum Tour
so I could watch it all on Tivo. That and MotoGP. I'm having a

worse than I thought it was) drinking beer and watching F1 and
MotoGP. Best thing about F1 these days is the qualifying. That and
the amazing set of drivers in the top five.
