With more history and class than any other category of motor sport Formula 1 is seen as the top of the hill for race drivers. Even though it is often criticised as being dull (especially by crash happy American motor sport enthusiasts) Formula 1 still maintains a huge following. From the first race in Australia all the way through to Abu Dhabi wherever Formula 1 goes it attracts an enormous amount of attention.
The King Is Dead, Long Live The King! Welcome to the new world of Formula 1, 2019 style! A small change in the cars regulations as well as new owners should hopefully reinvent Formula 1 because to be honest even last year was pretty dire in terms of racing spectacle. Changes to aerodynamics are supposed to make the cars easier to follow and aid overtaking, but I think we’ve all heard that one before. Now doubt the engineers have already worked out a way of taking all the racing out of Formula 1.
After years of the other teams moaning about the advantage Red Bull had (you remember, the races where Sebastian Vettel just drove off from the front of the grid and was never seen again?) 2014 brought with it a new era of dominance by Mercedes. And with it endless moaning from Christian Horner and Red Bull. Whilst
the racing still wasn’t what we’d ideally like to see in Formula 1 at least we had some sort of a battle going on at the front between team mates. 2015 was more of the same this time though with Hamilton being more dominant and we all complained
again about the lack of competition within Formula 1. At the same time McLaren were terrible, I mean really terrible. 2016 brought with it a new terror, the horror of again having 1 team completely dominate the results but with the added dismay of
having one drivers car being completely unreliable for half the season. The result was predictable from about the 5th race of one of the worst seasons in F1 history, Nico Rosberg winning a maiden Formula 1 Championship and then riding off in to the sunset. Will 2019 be different? It should be! Pre-season testing has revealed that
Ferrari are fast, Red Bull are keeping their cards close to their chest and that even though lots of people suspect Mercedes to still have the fastest car nobody knows for sure. What people do know is that with so many young hungry drivers in competitive cars, even if the engineers try to deliver a dull fest
we should actually stand a chance of some decent wheel to wheel racing.
Live Formula 1 is available in most countries. In the UK the BBC who have provided superb coverage for many years, boosting the sports popularity once again, were out bid by the Sky Sports monster. This meant all races showing live on Sky Sports F1 behind a pay wall with the BBC able to pick and choose a number of races to also show live. However the BBC gave up those rights which were picked up by Channel 4. Yes Channel 4 was the only way of watching live Formula 1 in the UK. Now even that has gone except for the British Grand Prix. Considering all the problems within the sport and the spectacle itself there is a high probability that Formula 1 is about to experience another crash in popularity in the UK. As an example when Lewis Hamilton won the F1 Championship in 2008 it is reckoned that over 8 million people in the UK watched the final year. In 2018 that number was down to around 1.5 million. Now with no free to air F1 coverage in the UK (except audio only F1 coverage on BBC Radio 5 Live) it will only get worse. There are still plenty of places in the world where Formula 1 coverage is broadcast live for free but they will be GEO locked (i.e. you’ll need an IP address from that region), it seems they are determined to kill Formula 1’s traditional fan base.
