F1 is not interesting anymore.

I recently saw an old race on youtube with Senna and Mansell battling each other from start to finish. Man, that was an interesting race! . Its a stark contrast to today’s F1, Mercedes has taken Red Bull’s place this year but its the same boring races marked by tyre and fuel conservation and very little racing. Many of the overtaking and defensive maneuvers in Senna’s days would be illegal today. Formula One is supposed to be the pinnacle of racing, why introduce so many unnecessary constraints?. Fuel economy and tyre degradation have now become more important than the driving itself. I am going stop watching the races for a while, possibly forever. Will find better ways to bide time on a Sunday afternoon.
