   Sure. I don't not enjoy them, it's just that I now have more things to   
   try and fit into my weekend (F1 is not my highest priority, sorry[*]) and I   
   don't get quite the kick out of them that I do the proper race. It does   
   help build the expectations for the Sunday race though, which, as   
   someone who pulls his race predictions out of his arse, adds hilarity.
