Default MotoGP or F1 ? Wich one do you prefer ?

I know that we can like both but the problem would be : if both are on TV at the same time wich one would you watch ?

I personally would certainly watch the F1 but the MotoGP is much more spectacular !! Or more regularly spectacular (the Silverstone race was exceptionnal this year in F1). :roll:

Even though last years were a little boring I prefer Formula 1. Moto GP is very good too and Valentino Rossi lead the show. This italian are crazyy :shock:

I'd choose F1
but i didn't see how MotoGP was any better. Rossi killed the whole field like Ferrari had done before.

I like F1, but I'm a incondicional fun of Moto GP. Every race is incredible and very, very spectacular. It's incredible to see a guy doing a drift with a 220 bhp motorbike at nearly 200 km/h!!!! There are continuous overtakes and races are not too long. Definitivelly I prefer Moto GP, and also the other races 250 cc and 125 cc.
However, I think F1 is also a good show to look at, but if there are races at the same time on TV I choose without doubt Moto GP.

I want to add that if the F1 nowadays would be like F1 in Gilles Villeneuve or Niki Lauda days, my choice would be much more difficult and probably would be different than now. I've seen videos about that period and that pilots really drove the cars without traction control and this kind of helps.

I think that paddle gearbox kills a lot of show because now, the drivers haven't to concentrate on downshift. Prost said this a few years ago and i agree with him.

Moto GP is insane and you have to give them props for it. my cousin has two retired racing bikes and theyscare the shit out of me. And F1 is pretty damn fast but they are starting to ruin the sport, with the rules and lack of coverage.

The F1 is not as spectacular as the Moto Gp, but I love cars so I'd watch to the F1 GP, even if Moto GP is way more spectacular

F1, F1, F1, F1, and the rules i think are good, like the 1 engine a weekend, that will force them to design better engines, and i wouldn't want the cars to be insane like they were b4 drivers are much safer now, and we won't see f1 greats die like b4 (not saying that it is still not safe) but motoGP is good to watch but i think F1 is just so much better
