2003 Season - General Discussion

The races are turning out to be just as dull this season. There’s zero overtaking—just people shuffling positions through pit stops—nothing dramatic or actually interesting happening on the track.

Give me this over last year any day of the week. It’s a hundred times better. Sure, the passing isn't constant, but at least it's actually happening!

Ralph could have easily snatched the win, Kim could’ve taken second, and just for the hell of it, Michael probably wouldn't even finish the race, haha 😁. If that happened, all three would have been within a single point of each other.

Forget the overall standings; just watch the actual race. Nothing exciting happens—maybe one single overtake during the whole thing. Whoever starts on pole basically just cruises to the finish line.
The only decent part is watching them fight through the corners.

After the start, I'm sitting there waiting 20 laps for them to hit the pits and actually do something. Then I wait another 20 laps just for it to be over. Everything in between is just mindless cruising.
