Which site is best to learn more about/follow F1?
I am a current casual watcher of F1. But, I would like to start to get into it and follow a team. I would rather not use another forum- I am thinking something more like an ESPN for F1, if it exists.
I appreciate any help or advice you guys could offer. TS has a great crowd.
Many thanks,
Matt

The best for overall content is www.autosport.com.
I also really like www.espnf1.com and www.motorsport.com's F1 section.
Of course, you can always look at good old official www.F1.com but it is somewhat sanitized.
If you want a site that aggregates all of the key F1 news from around the Internet regarding F1, try www.TotalF1.com.
I basically start everyday by reading every article on Autosport.com.
I also subscribe to the digital and print issues.

This is the first I've hear of TotalF1. Thanks mates!
The good sites were already mentioned. I like ESPN F1 myself for the easy to read format. I stopped going to Plantet F1. F1.com has a the best live timing. You just have to register, but it's free.
F1technical.net has some good technical articles and info if you're into that aspect of F1 racing.
F1 Fanatic is more of a community blog format based in the UK.

Thank you all for such quick responses!
Barrister- extra thanks to you. I am going to read up. I hope to spend more time contributing in the pit stop.

Each of the sites that I posted in that list have strengths and weaknesses.
Check a few out and one will catch your fancy.
Like I say, my favorite is AUTOSPORT.com. I think it has the best news, writing, photos and articles.
