If you want it to be a quote, you need to say at least where it comes from... But I do agree with Montoya (even if I hate him as pilot), football is extremely boring. Two goals in one hour and a half? Are you kidding me?

Comes from me?

And for those of you wondering where I got that Juan Montoya quote, it was from the quotes section in the May 2001 issue of F1 magazine, back when Montoya drove for Williams BMW. The full quote is, "Soccer? I HATE soccer! 22 guys running behind a ball. I don't find it very interesting."

I have a response to that quote "F1? I HATE F1! 18 drivers trying to be the next stig in Top Gear."

It's 20 drivers. 26 if you count the three new teams due to enter next year's championship, including Campos and USF1. And Montoya is now in NASCAR, by the way.

I don't care if it's 13 drivers, 18 drivers, 20, 26, or 150 it's the same old game which doesn't interest me at all.

the interesting is that both quotes , they just say the truth!

For me like or not like a sport is very personal preference, but of course the media help a little for the people to choose their preferece.

In brazil, soccer is the most popular sport, but the media hás a lot of blame on it: the ticket for matches are not so much acessible for all social classes but tv is free, so people cherrs fot the team they show, it even create one very peculiar fact that happens in all brazil: people that only have acess to national tv signal (which mean they only see matches of the south-southast teams, prefers to be a fan of these teams than than the team of its city or state.
