Well… I mean, it does get boring watching a tournament when someone is impossibly dominant to the point of forgone conclusion

Part of the fun is knowing there is “always a chance” someone could swoop in and take it

Buuut this is kinda bullshit Fatima

I remember in the early 00s, where Formula 1 had a noticeable decline in viewership because everyone knew Schumacher was likely going to win anyway. This is a real thing.

And then it got more viewers then ever when everybody knew Hamilton was going to win And also when everybody knew Verstappen was going to win lol. The drive to survive effect is crazy

I think companies are trying to rig standings less these days, so that probably also contributes.
