Motorsport in Europe has its share of redneck fans (speedway, especially) but F1 has a bit more of a classy image. It's the Cannes Film Festival of sport. Bo Derek was wondering around at today's GP in Turkey. That wouldn't happen at a Speedway meet. You should try and catch the rest of the season, you might be pleasently surprised. It's a wonderful sport that can become enormously addictive - as much for the backroom politics as for what happens on the track (which today was a bit uneventful apart from Hamilton's puncture).
And if US motorsport is associated with country music, then F1 is maybe more like a gorgeous Serge Gainsbough-Bridget Bardot duet - only far louder.
