MotoGP's Simoncelli

Not trolling or anything, but what is it that you guys find appealing about motor racing sports, ie F1, bikes, rallying and such? Is it just their precision and control over the vehicles?
What makes one racer particularly interesting to watch and another average or boring?
I respect the racers and the sports but just can't get into them- maybe I just need to read up on the tactics and that. Same deal with the tour de france actually, maybe it's just not something for me.

I have a pation for cars and was going to be a mechanic, I work in automotive just not fixing them, and my dad used to race while I was growing up and I used to help him till he broke his tail bone and had to give it up, and I have always watched different types of motor sport IE: F1,Moto Gp, V8 Supercars, Drifting aint racing persae but I love it, Rally is ok in small doses, and many more I love
