    Of course they are.

    I live in a small resort community of around 11,000. Property values are at an all time high right now for exactly that reason.

    That ship sailed long ago where I live. One of four blue counties in the entire state. A majority of the “non-natives” are from California (LA and San Francisco mostly), Washington (Seattle) and New York.

    MotoGP is the F1 of motorcycles. All prototype...leading edge tech.

    WorldSBK, MotoA Superbike, etc are based on production motorcycles. They all have their own different rules of allowed modifications to the production bike, but they all have to be based on the production bike itself.

    Then there is Superstock (1000cc) and Supersport (600cc) - they are even closer to the production bikes that you can buy with even stricter rules on what can be modified or changed.

    Great I have multiple places to get my racing fix on.

    F1 started to lose me when it became clear that the championship didn't come down to who was the best driver, but which team built a better car. I want tougher closer races. Now with Hamilton working really hard to try and prove he is in touch with inner city black Americans, even though he is English and more than likely worth more than $300,000,000. and flies everywhere in his private plane.

    Enough!
    Bike racing for a few years and then will maybe look again at F1. Sebs being in the hunt would help bring me back since I like his attitude about his wealth and fame.

    Yeah I know, and that’s precisely why it bothers me. Opportunistic virtue signaling.

    I never cared for team sports of any kind, never bothered with baseball, football, etc. An occasional World Series, or Super Bowl that's about it.
    Single person sports: surfing, kayaking, cycling, hiking those I've enjoyed and indulged in my entire life since I was teenager.

    Yea...that's the problem. With F1 cars being that wide and long, passing isn't exactly the easiest thing to do, especially when they are that delicate in the event of contact with each other. The racing environment for passing sucks. Now take a motorcycle, they take up very little space on a track and corner so stuffing it down the inside and/or boxing out the one they pass can be done a lot more readily. It makes better racing.

    Passing in the pits is absolute garbage racing.

    I'm typically all about college sports as most of the social justice stuff isn't there. But some people can't leave well enough alone:

    Some I agree with, others they have lost their damn minds.
    Experience is a cruel teacher, gives the exam first and then the lesson.
