I went to a Grand Prix at Silverstone when I was still at school (and, yes, the car had been invented by then!) and didn't think much of it. The noise was crippling.
And last weekend I heard a wonderful description of it that, IMHO, matches Oscar Wilde's description of golf as "a good walk, spoiled". 
F1 was descrbed as "a fast queue".
