If you are into Formula E I think they post the full races on Youtube, there have been some pretty good races. Also the Pirelli World Challenge has full races posted on their channel https://www.youtube.com/user/WorldChallengeTV although I haven't watched much so I can't speak to how good the racing is. If you are into oval racing, Look up NASCAR Battle at the Beach. Those races were pretty wild (Modifieds and late model stock cars).

Did you watch 2015 Daytona 500? Last 20 laps were insane (although I must admit I definitely know very little about NASCAR, but it was fun to watch).

I usually watch of formula 1 races on YT. Mostly from 1980s. I also watch old rally broadcasts, mostly group b rallies.

Just watched 2016 Daytona.
I won't spoil anything, but this one is a must watch :shock:

Eh, most of the race was pretty boring. The last few laps, however...

I forgot to mention, that I was thinking about the finish :doh:
TBH I haven't watched any stock car races before, but even those, which are considered by you as boring, are much more entertaining for me than F1. I think I'll switch.

If you want something insane, try the 2016 Spring Talladega race. There was a threat of rain and everyone was driving like a maniac. Normally on those superspeedway/restrictor plate tracks (Daytona and Talladega) drivers are pretty conservative up until the closing laps, but not this time. Some of the best NASCAR races are at the short tracks (Bristol, Martinsville, and Richmond). Lots of beating and banging and action there. If you've found you like ovals, you may want to check out some Indycar racing, too. They have had a lot of good racing on both ovals and road courses in recent years.

I've already watched Talladega before you recommended it. An insane race, indeed. Anyway, thank you for the other recommendations (including the Battle at the Beach that you posted few days ago).

If anyone was a proper link for watching the 2016 Formula 1 Spanish GP, with English commentary... I'd love to see that one again.

The first ever win for a (semi) Dutchman :bg:

I really enjoy watching F1 races from 2007-2009
Specially Canada 2008, Japan 2007-08 and Monaco 2008 are really enjoyable
