That's just Road racing, that's not F1.
Road racing there isn't alot of passing, because there are passing areas. Where oval racing it's a constant passing opportunity.
But the DRIVING is very different, as control the car through heavy heavy braking, knowing the difference between mechanical grip and aero, passing when getting to close screws up your aero. It's no fluke that JPM was instantly successful on road courses in NASCAR. I'm not saying NASCAR doesn't have it's own technical requirements. But to say that F1 racing isn't all that great
Maybe it's not as enjoyable to watch for the red blooded meat eating americans, but among the global market it has no match.
