I have! I really enjoyed it, too. Formula is great even though it's different than NASCAR. There are pros and cons to both styles of racing, and I must say I prefer NASCAR more than formula. However, I won't put Formula down because I love it and love watching the races!

I am a race fan. And yes, I am a Nascar fan.
I have watched many F1 events on TV, and have attended four F1 events. I don't like to call them races, more like follow the leader and maybe he'll break down.
But I will grant the point you are trying to make. Probably, most Nascar fans have not seen a single F1 race.
I have found that watching a race is usually not interesting unless you can identify, and identify with, the cars and drivers. While I find it incredible that F1 fans cannot appreciate the skill required to go from 10th to 1st in one lap at Talladega, I accept that the main reason is that they just don't recognize the cars and don't see the action that is taking place.
The same would apply to most Nascar fans. They would find it difficult (the TV announcers find it difficult) to tell the F1 team cars apart.

I have been to Rockingham, Pheonix Raceway, California Speedway, Monaco, Spa, Silverstone, A1 Ring, Monza .... to see F1 and NASCAR.
They are both great, very different though. For example pressure fuelling suits the image of Grand Prix but the "milk churn" fuelling of NASCAR is great fun.
Montoya will have a lot of fun

I have, and while I think F1 fans are just as devout as NASCAR fans, I can't get into F1. Not exciting enough for me, someone who likes to see nitty-gritty, three-wide racing with more passing and drama than F1 races..but hey, F1 fans are entitled to their opinion.

i've never seen one from start to finish, not enough action. i prefer NASCAR with side by side, bumper to bumber, exciting racing. and the cars acually PASS each other

I sure have but I just tend to watch more stock cars cuz I relate to the drivers better and they arent foreign. I am an All American girl and tend to support things American.
