    Speed better be showing all of these races. Some of the best open wheel action I've ever seen.

    I agree and i too am taking a liking to it

    Some pretty sloppy driving in the GP2 series but it certainly does not lack excitement

    thats the whole reason its exiting!

    Spec cars, more drivers, they're young, they make mistakes, and they're desperate to make a name for themselves

    Talk about good racing!

    I also loved watching it today. The teammates taking each other out at the start was crazy and it was really nice to see so much passing. At first, I didn't like the idea of F1 taking away all of the aerodynamic winglets, flaps, etc., but after seeing it in action today, I definitely support it. I would love to see this kind of action in F1.

    I certainly agree with that! The GP2 race at Spa a couple years back was far better than the F1 race. We were there and watched some fantastic driving from Nico Rosberg. As always with Spa it rains and the competition was so close - they ran the entire race on slicks despite the rain!

    You should check out Pro Formula Mazda as well.
    I still have last years Road America race on my Disc Recorder and watch it when I want to see REAL Formula racing.
    GP2 is a better "show" than F1 because of the equality and risks taken.
    There are a few "has been " F1 drivers there that do quite well showing that even backmark F1 drivers have great skills.

    Speed showed it sunday 30 mins after the F1 race ended (because the F1 race was on fox)

    You can see all races here. (not just for GP2, pretty much anything)

    Not Pizzonia! Considering he was just sacked with immediate effect. Here is some of his handy work...

    Another exciting race today. I've been saying this for the last two years, GP2 is the best series in the world right now for pure wheel to wheel racing.
