F1 will always outshine any of the others though, WTCC and Indy don't get the interest over here let alone the coverage. I went to Rockingham when the "Cart" championship as it was came over, and although it was pretty cool, after about an hour everyone was pretty bored and uninterested so i'm not surprised people don't really follow it here, let alone the time of day it's usually on due to the time difference....
I like their street style races, but the ovals are so incredibly dull.......
Button makes me laugh, not really been a good move to stick with Honda so far has it? He is such a sore loser though, he's got better but usually he completely slates the car and I hate hearing that.
At the end of the day Lewis will continue to get the same coverage as we all know the way the Media/Public work - i hear Silverstone had a massive surge of GP ticket orders when Lewis crossed the line, what does that say for you?
It's no different to when we won the Rugby world cup in 2003, suddenly everyone's a rugby fan, and with Football the amount of Chelsea shirts you see around this area now is comical.
