I was stunned to see a whole programme of sim racing on a TV channel dedicated to motor racing last night.
Ok, so it was x-box based Forza, I think, but was just as engaging as watching some of the processional Real Life racing we get these days.
With 2 commentators ( I think they were real and not muppets lol )and good use of the various camera angles it made the races quite watchable around a sun bleached Sebring.
Maybe sim racing on TV is the future? after all it would solve the problem of development budgets that plague modern F1 and would open up the sport to many more competitors.
